Old_ROF Posted August 12, 2019 Share Posted August 12, 2019 2 hours ago, Artifficer said: I wish I'd asked a family member who worked at Fort Halstead, he worked on light gum ballistics. He passed away 3 years ago, his name was Peter Fuller, a top ballistics and high speed photography expert, your friend might have known him. Regards I recognise the name. I worked down at the Fort in 1982-84 and again in 1986 so may have met him. I wax attached to GR1 section and he would possibly have been GR3 section.

Ian the engineer Posted September 29, 2023 Share Posted September 29, 2023 Gentlemen I was a final year apprentice toolmaker at the gun factory in 78 and I machined a drop stamp die," - on the roundabout" for the new pattern wheels - 6 stud, to supersede the 101 Land rover wheels 5 stud, that were used originally. They stopped making military pattern 101 forward control land rovers in that year and I assume wheel matching was no longer relevant. Kind regards Ian Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
