    An interesting story here. I'd like to learn more about this type of BV since I'd never seen or heard of it until this one. There must've been more than one made. Be nice to find some documentation on them, when they were sold, where, setup information etc. Hope you get it tracking well.

    if you go that way make sure to grind off the outside weld, make it flat with the side of the square tube, so it does not inter-fear when tilting the dish vertical from the bird bath position.

    in the picture no grinding or clean up has been done just tested an fitted after all the welding was done.
