Chaps,
Each day I search for one of those illuminating apparatus boxes, with no result as yet. I'll keep looking until I find one! Last night I was feeling bored and turned to making a single canvas bag for the holder on right side of the shield. If I understand correctly, it should be two seperate bags, but mine will be one piece for convenience. Good place to keep a couple of cans of drink, a museli bar or two.....and a packet of fags! All the essential things.
Also about to start on the two brackets holding the telescope case, and noticed something odd about the way the lower bracket goes, in relation to where the I.A. box sits. In reviewing photos I took of a 25 pounder nearby, that scope bracket overlaps quite a significant amount. See attached photos.
Looks like it would sit hard up against the box. Is this correct?
Can anyone supply me with a good photo of the plate that screws to the wooden block in my last photo, please? Alternatively, if you have one for sale, I would be interested in buying it. I recently hoped to get a local business to laser engrave a new CMP shift pattern plate, but sadly the image I had was not clean enough for scanning. I will try again with the plate I'm asking about now, and if an image is not usable, I'll try to mock one, using publisher software.
Thanks,
