Suggest you clarify what "grinder" you are speaking about - rotating beacon? retracting landing lite? Possible photo of the main item - some of us have "junk" parts. Possibly ir's that "French accent"! :)

Sorry I missed your clarification. I've got one disassembled that's works - don't remember about the glass - the red one with the metal "plug" in the center of the glass top that permits removal, when mounted upside down, to allow water to drain? Will check next trip to hangar.
