pulling up an old thread here but I have just acquired a complete charging pump box with its internals intact so in the process of replacing them in my other boxes to complete them with the pumps, tools, gauges etc which I have been collecting over the last 15 years or so.

The box pictured with the inserts is pre world war two and possibly a MK1 WWI box ,although the lid has been broken I will have a new one made and restore the box.
There appears to be very little or slight differences between the MK1 and MK2 boxes. Rob................rnixartillery.

Rob, I have one of those boxes with all the internal woodwork but it is disassembled. Even the original screws are loose still in the box. Can you show some photos detailing how the prices are laid out so I can reassemble it.

Can any of you enlighten me as to the use of the canvas type material on the tops. Is that to add a degree of weather protection?
I came across a box recently with a similar top construction but a small square shape with no markings. Looking at yours it is a similar style of construction.

The canvas cover is, as you guessed to provide waterproofing protection. A good indicator of artillery use, though not universal.

Well it feels like forever that I have been collecting bits for these boxes and I am still short of a pump adapter and the smaller of the two pump spanners but the end is insight !
I have just got the five top trays back from the cabinet maker as these were missing from all five boxes and they needed to have dovetail joints , just need to make the internals to carry the liquid pump and then they are done. If anyone has the smaller pump spanner and an adapter spare I would be happy to buy them ! Rob...……………...rnixartillery.
