I think I broke it! It basically a high quality clone of some type!
The copper center post has become loose, it used to screw up and down to adjust but now it just spins and I can just pull it out. Any ideas how to fix it, I think the plastic insulator has stripped. Can't seem to get the insulator out, should the copper post/screw screw into something?
Any help appreciated

I haven`t heard of that dripper, but if the copper post screws into plastic, I think you have hit the nail on the head , I cant see any useful images when I Google it.

If it is the same as the pic from dnglos link, then it looks like the centre post screws into plastic, and you are probably right in that it has stripped the thread

dnglos robby thanks guys that's what I feared I'll get on to the supplier to see if they can source spare insulators. Out of interest how does the Trident centre post attach, same method. I'm gutted because its a great Dripper and my own fault it's failed.
