I can't believe I've never heard of your store before despite living in the area, can't wait to visit.

drachinifel is a big naval historian on you tube almost sure he would love HMS Erebus brilliant

Do you have the HMS Buttercup from the Corvette Churchill hoped would sink a U-Boat? Eskimo ... Tribal Class Destroyer. Three thumbs up.

I would not worry about it's loss of "patina" as these Ships Bells would have been pollished to within an inch of the junior seamans life in real life anyway.

What a crying shame that the museum flogged off such national treasures , it used to be full of interesting artefacts to keep one visiting regularly , but now, I hardly ever visit , most of the great items from two world wars are gone.

A superb collection. I'll be bidding for sure..👍⚓️

They are called Ships Crests

Sir- Do you have a printed catalog on this auction? Would like to purchase a copy live in Minnesota 55118 USA

Fabulous. Subscribed and ticked. So hope to catch the following....

Wow that's a really nice collection. They look in pristine I've always loved these old dive helmets the third one down that you start the video with your hand on are my favorite even the fake one ones with all the brass and copper on them all polished up . Thanks you for sharing and your late father Rodger for starting this collection.

As a person with a long association with church bells and in particular the Whitechapel bell foundry what you call crown top are technically called Canons. Bells cast since the late 19th century in UK for church bells are now flat top bells I just thought I would let you know. Why they are called canons I don't know because they do look like crowns.

c an you turn the ba ckground noise off

Al very interesting, I love your passion for this. 👏👏

Polish it, I like the one I have from HMS Cornwall, it’s great to see find of the month back. 👏👍

Respect to Rodger- RIP x

Amazing

I enjoy your videos and recently noticed on your sales e mail a Suez light. About 20 years ago I visited a company in Lancashire making brass nautical lamps, I think called LEIGH, don’t quote me , as the grey cells are not 100%, it was an interesting company. They I believe manufactured the LEIGH LIGHT for aircraft sub hunting during the war and also the Suez light. Remember the dam busters using 2 lights pointing downwards to determine height as radio altimeters were not too accurate over water, well the SUEZ light was mounted on the prow of the ship and alumina both banks so at night the ship could be kept in the centre of the canal. Hope this helps and keep up finding things.

Brilliant, thank you…

Before AGA, Pintsch's Patent Lighting Co (London) produced a range of lamps installed in lighthouses, lightships and buoys. Developed by Julius Pintsch of Berlin, these were fuelled by oil gas as opposed to AGS who used Acetylene. I have a book illustrating some of Pintsch's marine products. Incidentally, they supplied what was the largest buoy at the time, designed to moor the liners Mauritania and Lusitania. During 1915, the British company divested the German shareholding and dropped the Pintsch to become purely Patent Lighting Company. Their other manufactures were devised for lighting railway carriages - AGA did likewise and their lamps outwardly appeared to be badge engineered Pintsch. I've actually remanufactured a Pintsch railway lamp for carriage restoration projects!

At last some technical content. The story of James Timmons Chance and the tie up with Fresnel is worth a bit of research as is that of Aga and his sunlight operating gas switch. Thank you for an interesting video and good luck. Look forward very much to the next…

I love my bronze chain link. I bought a triple section. Maybe I won't tell the wife. I also bought the small fisherman's anchor on impulse. It maybe even be the one in the video. I love that too.

Fascinating video. The finished article is amazing. Congratulations.

dreamy

great stuff

Astonishing! She must float then when she was filmed. Any thoughts on what it cost to build... I'd guess £200k +

Stunning mate , Well done.

Amazing

Brilliant love those items

Buoy bells are very interesting, the Whitechapel Bell Foundry made them , and boy bells have the high collar cast into the crown of the bell. During the latter part of the 19th century, a new form of bell tuning was developed by Vanon Simpson and was known as Simpson tuning and is still.l used to day on church bells. When a bell is tuned it is inserted on a vertical lathe and bell is removed from the inside of the bell at different places to give different harmonics. Firstly there is the strike note which is the note you hear when the bell is struck, there is also the hum note which is an octave below the strike note plus another one an octave above the strike note. There are also two other harmonics tuned, a 5th above known as a perfect 5th or dominant, and a minor third, so in essence, you end up with the sound of a minor third chord.

Hi there , Would you be able to tell me where I can get these amazing looking submarine? And normally how much are they cost ?

Great Video Mark - fascinating history.

Hey what happend to the COSMO JUIPTER bell? was that legit? i don't see it on the site anymore.

oh dear.....will anyone trust a "genuine " navy bell again? Mike C

Perfecto and LOVE to mucho.tks.

Being an ex Grimsby fisherman, I am very familiar with this sort of thing. Although I know that we did not have the same make on board any of the trawlers I was on but then, it was many years ago and perhaps some of the trawlers may of been fitted with the same. Very enjoyable to watch, brought back some memories of my sea going days, Thanks for that.

I saw this ship being launched when i was young. We were on our holidays at new brighton and it was being launched on the other side of the mersey

Stunning love these

Absolutely amazing. What a find. Unbelievable. Thanks for letting us look in the box. Will be interested when it is all up and ready for sale.

A lot of legends in this clip

Dirty animals destroying our oceans . . . . . utterly disgusting.

How’s the progress with the refit of K1 Britannia I cannot find any information regarding the refit anywhere.

bullshit!

1:5 Scale?🤔 Ah, yes, people were smaller 240 years ago! 😬Nevertheless, a lot of room for the mutineers on board of this tiny frigate!

This Model is made vor british TV Series Hornblower.

Is the Pandora behind the big one?

This is most certainly not the PANDORA that went hunting the BOUNTY mutineers -- that was a 24-gun Sixth-Rate. This monster is probably a 74 or 80, Third Rate. Can you clarify this?

The bowsprit is upside down. This is obviously not the HMS Pandora that went hunting for the Bounty mutineers, as that was a 24 gun sixth rate - a small frigate. Stunning scale model though. Does she float? Would be great with an engine fitted.
