Brian.

I pulled the rear cover from my Coil Case to verify thickness and it was 3/8-inch not the 1/4- inch I originally posted. It is also one solid board, although you could certainly build one up to size if needed.

I also did some rummaging in old parts boxes and found an insulated terminal assembly I had long forgotten about. It got whacked in its life and the inner ceramic sleeve that passes through the side hole of the case had three small pieces break off. Two larger ones were apparently saved and one small bit was lost. It was repaired with a liberal coating of what looks like battery pitch, but cleaned up reasonably well. I think some careful gluing with a modern porcelain or china cement might do the trick.

I will post a photo tomorrow of the bits for you.

David
