Hi Colin,
Excellent work on the boxes. A couple of questions; Do they come with the latches you showed being manufactured in your other post? Will you also be making the three smaller boxes that mount in the rear compartment?
I'm definately interested in a set. I'll send you further detailis in a PM.
Thanks.
Ian

Default tool box

Colin, as usual top quality work. Like Ian I was wondering when you are reproducing the drivers tool box.

Hi Ian, they will definately have the correct latches on them and I will have some of the rear boxes as well.
Hi Euan, if I can get enough time I will make some drivers tool boxes. It just depends if I can make the die's to produce the hinges but I will do my best.
regards
Colin.

Heat shields finished. They are fully welded with 25mm thick fibrocement sheeting inside as a replacement for the original aspestos they used back then. I also did the same in my mortar carrier as it is exactly the same and it works a treat, but it does make them quite heavy.
