How much Calcium Carbide to use?

I know the carbide use is variable based on the pellets and how much water you drip. BUT, does anyone have any rules of thumb such as X amount for 30 minutes or 1 hour?????? Hate to waste while experimenting to come up with my own since so many others have already done this.

Re: Wanted 1913 Touring top iron

Thank you for the John Boornakis in Auburn CA recommendations. I have attempted to reach him a couple of times this week based on the number I found on this forum but will continue to try (there is no voicemail on the number I have).

Wanted 1913 Touring top iron

Please help …. I need only the drivers front iron for a 1913 Touring (the one that attaches to the windshield).

Please, please, please … I’m topless without it (and believe me, that’s NOT an image you want to see on tour)
