Default Bits and Bobs

It has been cold and wet, hardly inspiring time to spend evenings in the shed so I've been entertaining myself with restoring and sorting out bits for the 25pdr.

I finally restored the Illuminating Apparatus box and the No.5 Illuminating Apparatus, so that both lamps now work properly. I am still missing one of the lamps and the right angle ' Niphan' style plug - who made these lamps? What happened to them all?

Next will be sorting out the aiming point lamp and battery box....
