hi lynn,
thanks for that. I have made a jack angle iron holder to the specifications of Bruce Parkers holder. Jordan Baker has the same holder but with the rubber strap, Brucers has the webbing strap, i have an original webbing strap so have gone for Brucers, he sent me a first rate drawing. I need a Canadian wooden holder with Canadian Jack.

Kevin,
I am the owner of that particular block/ pics, and I hope you can use the pictures to build your own! I will try to ident the type of wood that was used and advise. If you require any other close up pics of tools and accessories please ask, as I am completing a colour reference book for tools/accessories etc for the Canadian Bren Carrier MKII. I am also looking for the hydraulic jack for same. Regards Bruce Harris |

I have a pile of CNo.7 .22LR rifle chests made of Eastern black or white spruce/ red or white pine/ GOK* fir. That wood has a similar deep tone to the 60yr old patina of the chests. With cross-grain wood and various steel reinforcements, it seems reasonably durable. Wooden chests and boxes were a well-known commodity in those days, and the plants knew which boards to use where.
I don't see any open pores like oak, which would be red oak if used. If it is hardwood, maple and birch are very common species. GOK - God Only Knows
