    He's at many of the big euro shows & comes across to Beltring every year. His round-ended tins are quite good but when I bought a few off him some years ago the internal fixings were wrong & we had new replacements made. Mind you, he's probably fixed this by now. He was also into having spurious marks stamped onto the lids, although I advised him to leave them blank for obvious reasons. On one occasion when I saw him in Franceicon he saw an original Britishicon wire breaker I'd just acquired & was jumping up & down like a frog on fire trying to get it off me so he could get it copied!
    I believe his wife is Vietnamese & he gets a lot of the work done out there, although his brackets are made in Eastern Europe, I think, unlike mine or the Sarco variants.....
    More useless information.........!
