[michaelthegardener]

Anyone know anything about vintage fire extinguishers ? had a poke round a customers garage today to see what tools wanted and among all the nice woodworking handtools I found a brass fire extinguisher its unused and the only markings on it are port of Bristol where he worked im guessing its safe enough to polish and hang on the wall ??? anyone know if theres any danger

I think you will need to get it emptied by a pro' to be safe. They do sell for good money sometimes depending on make age etc: i could take it off your hands ( free of charge ) if your worried it may explode :;): :p
I collect any old shite and upcycle. Any photo's.

love old stuff like this,a lot of the time its more historical interest than anything,I usually clean and keep any old bottles we dig up
the old glass is much more interesting than new stuff
