I am trying to find a source for the following commonplace item:
A brass end-cap for securing the end of a 3/8 dowel curtain rod, fixed onto a triangular piece of metal which in a meccanno set would be called a trunion.
My six tiny cabin windows and portholes have minute curtains hanging on rings, but the fittings are old and damaged from clumsy removal in the past, so it would be nice to get new ones.
They used to be commonplace in proper ironmongers and Woolworths, but now no one has heard of them, whatever they are called. The best ones I have seen unscrewed, so there was no need to undo the two wood screws to take the curtains off.
Can anyone help please?
