We have a spare Risbridger in the office, you are more than welcome to borrow it.

I clean forgot about that! :rolleyes:

Risbridgers are (or at least as of earlier this year and currently according to their website!) still produced by Risbridger Ltd, though not quite in the same guise as we used in the RAF. They look a tad more up to date than I’m used to.

I’m well versed in their operation and (regular) maintenance, ex-Canberra rigger see 😉

The request was aimed at anyone who might have something kicking around who wasn’t aware of or bothered about it’s commercial value and would rather see it be used for preservation. I know all too well what they’re selling for, hence the request. I think as of this post my already slim chances just vapourised..

indeed. risbridgers are no longer made. they are like rocking horse stuff. good luck finding one. Turner adaptors usually come up on MOD disposals regulary, and are nowhere near 800 quid. The last lot of turners I saw went for a pitance.
