Hello I have nearly finished my first grenade, needs striker, det tube, det holder and lugs. Just wanted to know what you guys think of it. This is for my own collection and will not be for sale. Cheers rob

Looks good, must have taken a while to do, what kind of filler did you use ? Is the brass top piece a modern part and did you mark it up yourself ?
 
Hello, I made the whole thing from scratch copied all the dimentions from the original relic one in the first pic and cross referenced it with dimentions given on the internet and from The book ( grenade ) I will be doing a different british NO series grenade each couple of weeks depending on what spare time I get at work. I will post a pic if it shortly before it was painted and the brass aged. If anyone needs specific parts making to complete grenades I would be happy to help but will not be making complete Grenades for anyone but myself cheers rob
 
Oh right, well done ! I thought it was a restoration job. Must be nice to have the resources at hand.
 
Very nice work Rob, like to see the other grenades you do in the near future.
