Hoorah my bug has been squashed, damn awkward little bugger, thanks skypilot for preserving my sanity and you WH for showing the item in question as in situ

[Steve T]

Oh WOW ! Well done WH ! That picture has just identified two of my bits that were on the verge of being consigned to the 'probably something but I can't be arsed cleaning them' bucket. I have got one each of the bent handles on the top of the tripod

PS I won't slap you on Tuesday now for that

It looks more like it may be from a 1917A1 tripod rather than the vickers. I'll get a photo of mine for comparison.

[m3bobby]

OK, Here is a shot of my British Service Browning 1917A1 tripod. Typically, I took a photo of the wrong side!

[davejb]
