This set of cans has been in our club since before I was involved.  None of us 
seem to recall where this thing came from or who made it.  Does anyone 
recognize this one?

The cavities are about 4" in diameter and are 23" long.  The top plate is heavy 
brass and is made to fit 6 spaces in a 19" rack.  At first glance it almost 
looks like it is homebrewed.  The cavities are not silver plated.  But some 
things make it appear to be of commercial origin.  The aluminum cavities have 
very neatly welded top mounting flanges and bottom endcaps, and are 
anodized/alodized.  Also, the tuning rod lock nut assemblies appear to be 
custom fasteners, and the center elements have nice fingerstock at the bottom.

We used this on a temporary, low-power machine a few years ago.  Now, we'd like 
to really go through it and tune it up for a another machine.  While I had it 
here, I thought I'd try to figure out where it came from.  Thanks.
