    Well ....... there is a bit of that. I'm working on the complete solution yet ( not the final solution, that was a German thing ).
    anyway ..... the moment you have all been waiting for, The photos.
    and here they are,

    and that will do as you must be getting " brassed off " :avatar::facepalm: Oh well ..... I liked it.
    So, there we have it. One in factory finished black and four in brass. All three link couplings came separate in their boxes.
    I'm pretty pleased with them.
    cheers
