Roy Agree,
He'll probably have the plans as well.

Thanks to Forum power I have acquire a C No7 case, now just waiting for it to make it though the postal system.
I am aware that it came with a cleaning rod, a jag and bronze and bristle brushes. Was that all there was and what pattern of rod?

The Cno7 cleaning rod is unique. It came with 2 jags - solid and slotted and 2 brushes - nylon and wire. All had unique threads. Not many sets out there and quite pricey. If a No9 why not just buy Parker Hale. Other things in the box - sling, oiler, targets. I've got a CES somewhere. Ron (Canada).

Thanks
I do already have quite a large collection of vintage PH .22 cleaning kit including this rather smart kit.
The box actually has three drilled out holes alongside the front bracket which appear to fit a jag and two brushes, presumably bronze and bristle.
If you do come on the CES I'd bet very pleased to see it.
Can we say what pattern of oiler and sling were standard.

C No.7 cleaning rod
I had a couple kicking around, sold them with transit chests. Supply and demand... Alone they fetch around a hundred bucks, IF you can find one.
Difficult to find nowadays even here in Canada.

Blimey! Now I know what that tatty old cleaning rod is that was up the corner in the garage for years......! It's a highly desirable CNo7 cleaning rod. I must have a look to see if I've still got it, although I may have given it away (weeps).........
