Hello Wim! Yes, I sent you email to your website but it returned undelievered. You have perfect description there of this box but no dimensions.
That is good because I have to dig out my box. Meanwhile: what is your aim, goal ? Do you have (part of) a box, do you want to make one ?
I'm a reenactor. I do WWII living history events in Ukraine. I'm very authentic in all stuff I use during events. I do not have Petromax Lamps but I do have german kerosine lamps which I'm going to store in this wooden box because it's authentic. That is a reason I need measurements.
I was in the bunker and measured the box: its a cube outside 375x375x375mm made of 16mm thick wood. Height of the lid: 75mm. Box corners have metal protection pieces. I always had in mind to make a detailed construction drawing of the original boxes I have or see. Only problem with that is that people start to reproduce them and may sell them as original. These boxes are made in a time box making was a real trade. At the Dutch railway I have seen these made for the last time for measuring equipment. The labour involved besides craftsmanship makes them expensive. On the box making webpage you find boxes people made themselves.
@SSG Popov That equipment is exported from Germany to the USA. I'm just assuming but wouldn't it be cheaper to import direct from Germany.
