    Thanks all.

    Edwards Shed was the place I had in mind to look at doing it for me, I’ll give them a shout.

    A Collector's View - The SMLE Short Magazine Lee Enfield 1903-1989. It is 300 8.5x11 inch pages with 1,000+ photo’s, most in color, and each book is serial-numbered.  Covering the SMLE from 1903 to the end of production in India in 1989 it looks at how each model differs and manufacturer differences from a collecting point of view along with the major accessories that could be attached to the rifle. For the record this is not a moneymaker, I hope just to break even, eventually, at $80/book plus shipping.  In the USA shipping is $5.00 for media mail.  I will accept PayPal, Zelle, MO and good old checks (and cash if you want to stop by for a tour!).  CLICK BANNER to send me a PM for International pricing and shipping. Manufacturer of various vintage rifle scopes for the 1903 such as our M73G4 (reproduction of the Weaver 330C) and Malcolm 8X Gen II (Unertl reproduction). Several of our scopes are used in the CMP Vintage Sniper competition on top of 1903 rifles. Brian Dick ...

    OK, that's 3 people making 4T chests then

    Valmont was the expensive one, as noted, but the other value one I was thinking of was the guy that makes all sorts of WW2 era ration boxes and equipment boxes. He doesn't list the 4T box on his website among all the Germanicon and US weapons chests that he does, but I was looking at his products on his stall at the big Militaria Fair at Stoneleigh back in Feb, and he had a 4T chest on display, so he will do one, so can't see why he wouldn't do a L42 one as well.
    His website is here...http://www.wwiiboxes.co.uk/index.html

    Coming into this thread late again as usual. I’m looking to have an L42A1 transit chest reproduced.

    Most pics in the older threads no longer show up so I can’t see any diagrams/dimensions I did find a thread that listed the dimensions as 49 1/2"L X11" W X 4 1/2 D and constructed from 1/2" plywood.

    Can anyone confirm the above dimensions, and is there anyone who has dimensional drawings (similar to the No.4 Mk. 1 T schematics on the forums) that they could share with me?

    Thanks much in advance.

    Ted
