Meekumslr Posted March 1, 2019 Share Posted March 1, 2019 Just in the workshop going through, trunks, boxes and packing cases and am a bit stuck on a box. The box is of similar manufacture to Universal Carrier boxes but has no markings. It appears that it would have had the lock on the top with fold down front door and shelf. Does anyone have an idea?

Surveyor Posted March 1, 2019 Share Posted March 1, 2019 Looks like a document holder of some sort, we had one on the bridge that held about 5 A4 folders but was ready to be thrown over board if needed Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tony B Posted March 3, 2019 Share Posted March 3, 2019 Not a naval document dump box. To light and no holes in it, so it woud float. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Doubt it would float the lid is not watertight. Looks more like a locker fitted under truck bodies. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Surveyor Posted March 3, 2019 Share Posted March 3, 2019 It was the internal layout which brought the Naval box to mind, wasn't think of it being that, more the documents being held there Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The original Naval document dump boxs are like small safes, a two man lift with four holes in the bottom which which are on quick release bases , handles on the side plus other holes to allow quick sinking. I had a couple that I used as floor safes. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
