Not much to report. I pulled my canvas roof out of the deep storage corner of my shop and tried it out on the wire-3 box. It fit perfectly.

So Jordan, are you going to cut holes in it for the WIRE-3 fittings?

(I cringe as I say that)

I'm glad I got one way back when you had a run of them made. Bruce I will most likely be putting some small holes in for the wire-3 fittings. But all in good time.

I spent a bit of time tonight taking all of the canvas racks apart and the various rifle and headset clips. I'll start sandblasting them this week.

For the box my plan is to cut off the side, fix the floor/frame sheet metal. Get it sandblasted and then make new sides. Oh lots of work, but it's all for a great cause.
