Sonnenschein Posted June 24, 2009 Report Posted June 24, 2009 (edited) I'm sorry if this is old new - couldn't find anythin via search eingine so far. I just found a thread over at the rpf and a new guy mentioned that it looks like a pvc female connector (plumbing) So I google some pics - Is this close? I am sure these come in metal aswell. Have a look: http://www.plumbingsupply.com/images/pvc-f...pter-sxfips.jpg comments? best, Karin Edited June 26, 2021 by gmrhodes13 photos updated gmrhodes13 2021 Quote
rapstertee Posted June 24, 2009 Report Posted June 24, 2009 Nice find! I think the purists among us will steer clear from it, but I can see it as a comlink head, or aerators for concept lids. What sizes are there things? Quote
Sonnenschein Posted June 24, 2009 Author Report Posted June 24, 2009 I guess they come in various sizes - for different tube diameter. Has the original part ever been identified? Maybe we need to look under 70ies sinks in the UK - several other parts were already found there. Karin Quote
Daetrin[Admin] Posted June 24, 2009 Report Posted June 24, 2009 I don't think it would be EIB, but my guess - made w/o seeing it in a helmet - is that it would probably be OK for 501st. Heck, the aerators that come with the AP kit are less accurate and they are 501st acceptable. Quote
firebladejedi[TK] Posted June 24, 2009 Report Posted June 24, 2009 (edited) The mic tips are a found item, but nobody knows what they were.. they look like this. If you want a set of the best reproduction hovi's see Keith or stomper Edited June 26, 2021 by gmrhodes13 photos updated gmrhodes13 2021 Quote
TK-2126_MD[TK] Posted June 25, 2009 Report Posted June 25, 2009 These look almost identical to the pvc piping connetors we have down here, the smallest one is 1/4 of a inch internal diamater, the how thing is huge close to a inch all around...... Quote
Runnriottt Posted June 25, 2009 Report Posted June 25, 2009 I was under the impression its a microphone tip from a vintage PA, or small mic handset. Hovi Mix is on the side. It will surface... I do not think though there plumbing parts. Close, and work in a pinch for a few bucks though! Quote
keith Posted August 2, 2009 Report Posted August 2, 2009 (edited) Yes, i'm sure its just a matter of time before this item is found. Here are some close up shots of mine (sorry i don't offer these ones for sale). Please don't use these photos anywhere: Keith. Edited June 26, 2021 by gmrhodes13 photos updated gmrhodes13 2021 Quote
