|  shutter glass 
			
			Can someone  tell me the thickness of the shutter glass and a bit of an idea what they cost to get cut ?   Also why was the metal frame to hold the glass made so lightly where they ment to brake off when hit by a bullet .. Dale

|  triplex plate 
			
			Hi Dale, The triplex plate is 5/16 or 8mm thick. Simon Allen is making repo surrounds if you need any.

			I had Windscreens Obrien cut glass to suit my frames, AU$10 ea. At that price I had 3 spares cut in case they do get shot....more likely kicked.

			O.k I've just about got the shutters sorted out thanks to some MLU Members . One more question I need to machine up the 687-4 collar link large this is the spacer that goes in between inner and outer plates  is it a roller or just a fixed spacer  also the I need the  DIA  when I measured the cut outs in the hull   i noticed that one of the cut- outs in the armor plate , are not parallel looks like it is narrower then goes into the round part , It  looks  to me to be around 20mm in DIA to allow it to operate  also I also think Lynn mentioned it is the same thickness as the plate .    JUST FOUND  IT IN THE SPARE PARTS BOOK  , SHOULD HAVE LOOKED FIRST  5/8 X 33/64     DALE

			Euan, can you check the thickness? I believe the riveted carriers are 4.5mm I think the LP2 takes 5.5mm, but will need someone to check it please.
