Derk’s new Universal carrier Mk 1*

[derk derin]

A couple more interesting items that Dave had was an original blanking board. It’s too bad it was sitting on the ground and took on moisture rotting away the bottom portion. I will try and rebuild it with some replacement laminate pieces.
Dave also said the carrier originally came with leather handgrips. They are complete enough to replicate. The problem is I look at their construction and wonder what kind of sewing machine could sew the pieces together?
The rubber handgrip must have come from Dave’s Mark 2 carrier.
