Images of the radio battery box interior

[rob love]

I just got my POW holder with sign and brackets from midwest military: http://midwestmilitary.net/brencarri...l#topbrenpage4

I'm very happy with the detail of it, and once the rain subsides hope to get it painted and installed. Postage to the UK would be killer though.

I Have that same "desert stowage" on my carrier project. Happy to take measurements if anyone wants to try to make a copy.

[RichardT10829]

The rivets on the battery box, are they 3/8 or 5/16 ?

Jim, the water bins on your carrier led to at least one reproduction set!! Here's the ones I made using yours as a pattern. They are fussy to reproduce with lots of different sized metal stock (all available luckily) and alignment of the supporting brackets. Then you have to go out and find four of those "$300" water cans.

Bruce, I would be more than happy to pay you to make another set! I am not a welder and I have seen your brilliant
work! I don't think many could do as good.

Are you game??
