Slightly off topic, please excuse, but one of my projects which I have lined up is to convert a Vickers/Lewis chest to fit a U.K. deactivated Russian 1910 Maxim HMG. The 1910 Maxim does fit, just, inside the chest but I need to stretch the chest downwards by about 1" in order to close the lid. The chest requires a completely new bottom in any case and some repairs and so it doesn't seem to matter so much about making a few extra alterations to it in the process.

I will start a new thread with more pictures when work gets underway with this project in earnest.
