OK Lynn,
Thanks for that. I realised that I was using ex-LP2A frames as a pattern they appeared to the untrained eye to be identical. Oh well they will have to do for now I guess as the originals were long gone when I found the Scout Carrier. The ones I am having made will still fit LP Carriers, Rovers and Aust Dingos so no great loss there. We already need many for the Museum's fleet. Just as a matter of interest, what were the markings on the English glass ? The one and only intact glass I have found for a pattern has the classic 'triplex' logo in one corner. Cheers Phill

Sorry about this but the contractor has been unable to get to actually looking at the sample I provided, let alone manufacturing them.
I was able to recover my original sample and have since found enough stained but intact original glasses to complete my carrier. The price originally quoted seemed almost too good to be true ![]() Phill

Sorry Justin, I only just managed to locate a set for myself (one has a corner broken free) and a few random rusted or broken pieces.
Finding enough original glass was by sheer luck as well... Originally i was contemplating making some up out of brass beams from the hobby store and sheet silver soldered together - what a fiddly and fragile job that would be ! Cheers Phill
