I have made arrangements to have old style Roccoco bushings and maybe plugs made with the relief art around the rim, direct copy, i am just checking before I commit. The bushings would have a 3/4" blank hole in it with the outside threads machined on. You could either tap the 3/4 or drill and tap for larger hole in bushing. These would be bronze. Would anyone be interested. Appx. 20.00 ea.

Sounds cool Tim
I would take a couple. That would be great - we could make our own eccentric bushings. Mad Dog

Tim, is the hole
on-center, or eccentric? And do you plan on making them to fit different sizes of radiator tappings (1-1/4 to 2 inches) so they will fit different radiators? I know I can use eccentrics- they are hard to find so I try to save as many as possible when we change a radiator.

size of bushings
Steamhead, they will probably be mostly 2" as this was the size on the rococco and federal style radiators. As far as the center tap, vs eccentric. I can have some cast with no hole in center so you could drill for eccentric and the rest would have the hole in the center of bushing.0
