[Collins] COLLINS 75A-4 (FILTER HOLDER)

[John Hensley]

Chris,
The A4 filter holder came from a same size electrical fuse holder.  Collins plated the holder and added a stud, washer & wing-nut tokeep it all together.
I mention this because sellers indifferent to details often sell thecheap fuse holder ends as "Collins" material when of course theyare not.  Be wary of the big ePlace sellers as they do this frequently.
On the other hand, its a good interim solution.  The aluminum bracketwhich supports the holders & filters can be made at any sheet metalshop given the dimensions. 
Hope this helps.
