No replies yet, so I'd thought I would dig one out and measure it. Box is made from 5/8" thick timber, outer dimensions 20 3/4"L x 6 1/4"W x 4 3/4" H. Inner dimensions 19 1/2"L x 5"W x 4 5/8" H.
Outside of the basic box are 6 battens (2 on top, 2 on ends and 2 on bottom) 1/2"thick x 2"W x 6"L. Inside the box are 2 divider sheets 3/8"thick 5 1/2"W x 3"H rebated into the sides. In each grenade compartment are 2 spacer pillars 1"x1" and 3 1/4"H. 1/4" sisal rope is used for each end handle and wrapped around the body of the box as a "security" seal. Hope that explains it. Here's some pics to illustrate my ramblings: |

One of the members from Tecumseh Ontario sent me an email concerning the # 36 Mills crate. Unfortunately I have misplaced his address. If possible can you send it to me again. Many thanks John |
