That's great, thanks so much.
I will get that arlec off ebay.
Should i find a usa plug to wire in so i plugs straight in or use an adapter as pictured.

As for safety, stay the hell away from contacts before transformer?? but I'm safe for all relays switches etc after transfer on this machine?
Also who do you recommend to buy replacement parts off, chime knockers etc. One looks black with metal shavings around it.

Thanks again, have been reading through heaps of resto's on here and learning a lot of ideas, hopefully this one doesn't turn me off and i can build on my collection!
