Does anyone know the part # for this clamp. I can't seem to find it in the parts listings.

hi jordan, I made one to the drawing dimensions in the first post, one thing to note is that when you put it to use to clamp your crook, you need a fairly think thackery type spring washer between the wingnut and the bracket because when you tighten down the wings of the nut will foul on the bracket, i came apon an old style wingnut which was correct. I will try and dig out some photo's of an original bracket.

kevin.

Much appreciated Kevin. I was thinking that a headlamp spring may work.

Would the wing nut be the same size as the wing nuts on the "Bren Gun" tripod holders on a mk1 carrier? 2 heavy springs are with these mounts, a Valve spring would work. Jim
