And very nice too Andy-you have done a really good job on that one and it is also rare to see a good condition flare can.
Thanks for showing us.CHRIS

Thanks Darren, a bit of a bugger with just a hacksaw and drill and file but i am very pleased with the way it turned out i did want to do the fuze as well but it would not come off.
Cheers
Andy
