Title: glass cloches-old
Post by: stevenh on October 09, 2006, 07:55:42

Hi, About fifteen years ago I inherited a box of glass cloches from my grandfather, and have never used them because we had young children
Well we thought as they were older now we should use them.
We cannot work out how to assemble them and have even looked on the web for clues, they are probably 40+ years plus old.
There are two types of metal clips, one is an V shape and the other and circle with end loops
Apart from taking them to RHS Wisley to see if they know what to do, does anyone have any clues?

many thanks
Steven
