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

I think the wingnut was a 3/8dia BSF one. It should be the same that was on the pick axe head bracket or the battery hold down bracket rods.

Maybe I missed it, but I don't see the opening width dimension in Kevin's drawing, so mine measures 34mm (yes it is original)
Skip, make the stud longer than the photo.
