Title: Land mine box dimensions?
Post by: Selliott on February 22, 2021, 02:27:09 PM

Hey gang,
I know there are a couple of threads out there about the boxes themselves, but none have the dimensions.  Anyone have one of these that they would be willing to measure out for me and give me some detailed measurements?  I’d like to try to make a couple for above the windshield armor.  Let me know if you can help.  Thanks, Shon

I used these drawings to build mine, except that I turned the ends up with 45-degree joints instead of the joints shown.

I emailed you some pictures of how I fabricated the odd-sized 1-3/4" x 3/8" strap. I hope this helps.

Try this place. http://www.wwiiboxes.co.uk/Weapon%20Related.htm. I do have a mine crate but someone is borrowing it at the moment otherwise I would get you the measurements.
