My box is Canadian, and I don't know who made the internals. While, for the most part, they do match up, the top tray is a tight fit into the main box. I squeezed it into there for now, but will do some fitting once I get to that part of the 25 pdr project.

As promised, some photos of the tray interior.
As I mentioned, my box is Cdn and the internals came from Oz. While the mounting comes pretty close, there are variations. There would seem to be a variation with the bracket that limits the lid, as I am going to have to relocate it's mounting point.



Over the years, some of the wood screws that Jack kept with the dividers may have become misplaced or used up elsewhere. I have a lot I removed from Bren chests, so managed to replace some of the missing ones, but I am going to have to dig a little deeper to find some of the smaller ones.



I note there is also a wooden cover to go over the face of the pressure gauge that is missing in your photos Rob.
