Just wondering if anyone can provide the sheet metal gauge for the bren tripod box? Not sure if it was 16ga or 18ga.

Here is the drawing that I have. Bruce Parker provided it.

The picture is from the Mk1* Carrier in South Africa.

The sheet gauge appears to be the same as the lower engine cover panels.
