Very nice piece of "trench art"! Would look great on anyone's collection shelf!

Can you post some photos of it Ashishin, and any info you have on it, thx

Sure will. I've asked my Dad to take a picture and send it me. I'll post it up when I get it.
I've always been facinated by it. Knowing it was made at Woodford (where i was bought up) made from Lancs.
Apparently he almost gave it away to the Woodford Heritage centre last month. Glad he didnt it's mine one day :-)

Hokey, Got the Pics of the Lanc for you.
It's was made by a Machinist at Woodford Aerospace, Grtr Manchester, during the War.
It was passed onto my Dad by a friend many years ago.
It was my indestructable toy as a kid :-)

. Its made from a single piece of aluminium from a crashed Lancaster.

Single piece?
Where would you find such a huge aluminum block?
Maybe a prop?
