Rob and Jordan
Once again, many thanks for your trouble and for the exact measurements. Actually, I am quite pleased as my estimate proved pretty accurate, to the extent that my first effort at a model (only 7mm long) is quite near enough (but I didn't know that until I got your measurements). Now I just need to add the hinges (some of my pics showed these too and I didn't understand why), D rings and handles and then to cast a few more. Then to arrange a scale mule or two to carry them! If and when I get round to it all, I'll post a pic.
