What's the dimensions of each skirt, starting with the top one, and total height?  I can give you their M numbers.

The three skirt insulator, measures 12" top, 8 1/2" Mid and 6" Bottom, approx 10" Tall.. The other measures 12" top, 9" bottom, approx 9" tall, also a 5 and 8 on each side of the Ohio Brass marking.. Thanks for any help.

Might be a new version of the ad I found

Tom

hey Tom, don't drop that thing on your foot. My wife would kill me if I brought something that big home. They are pretty cool though.

Thanks All, I can't find any markings on the three skirt insulator, but it looks just like the victor  dadwasadigger posted.. and Cap I did get a funny look from the wife when I walked in with it.. I also found two more today in the same area, a baby blue PINCO, 1968-15,000 and a S-LAP tower type (this one you damn sure wouldn't want to drop on your toe)..

I think the first 3 skirt one is an M-3422,and the Victor is an M-3156, but I'm not sure.  Nothing matches those exact measurements, but porcelain shrinks when fired, so they're not all exactly the same.  The metal topped OB is part of a 2 piece deal I believe, I'm still looking.
