Here is a recent purchase, 40mm L/70 Bofors projectile and fuze. Unfortunatly the fuze has no insides but still a nice display piece.

Hi Darren thanks for showing your projectile, you could finish that one off nicely with a case. L70 cases can be bought reasonably cheaply. The link below shows a sectioned L70 including the case to give you ideas.

I was thinking about getting a case for it and cutting it at some point, as you say it would Finish it off a treat.

Thanks for the link, great factory cutaway you have there Dave, your very lucky to have obtained that one!

Cheers,
Darren
 
Hi Darren,
If you are still looking for a l/70 case to section I have one you can have for the cost of postage.

Hi Weasel,
I still do not have a case for this project so yes that would be great.

Thanks,
Darren
