Default leather dust boots

Hi Arie,

I have had made a few sets of the dust covers, to suit the Aust LP2 Bren Gun Carrier.
I assume they would be the same as an English/Canadian carrier.

My advice is to make a cardboard template to assist with getting the angles, inside and outer dimensions correct.
Do a test sample first to ensure fit is correct and that it expands & compresses with axle movement.
Do not use too thick a leather as it will be hard to move as required.

Regards
