Hi Jim,

I am having 3 made as we speak, infact I have to go look at the first one this morning the guy has started to make. He is making the basic box with lid, I will drill all the holes and mount the catches and fabricate the inner corner part myself. The basic box is £300 without catches, holes and inner corner piece.

A note on the original he has to copy, it's a British made one and has a hinge stiffning plate on the inside, not seen this before on the Canadian ones.

I also believe the mounting holes on the lid may be different between this one and the Canadian ones, this original is off a true early sloped back Bren Carrier Ben has.

Ben can you highlight the differences?.

I will post some pics later today.

kevin.
