Hi Jim,
I am having 3 made as we speak, infact I have to go look at the first one this morning the guy has started to make. He is making the basic box with lid, I will drill all the holes and mount the catches and fabricate the inner corner part myself. The basic box is £300 without catches, holes and inner corner piece.
A note on the original he has to copy, it's a British made one and has a hinge stiffning plate on the inside, not seen this before on the Canadian ones.
I also believe the mounting holes on the lid may be different between this one and the Canadian ones, this original is off a true early sloped back Bren Carrier Ben has.
Ben can you highlight the differences?.
I will post some pics later today.
kevin.
