Hi all,

Dad is on a battery box making kick, and needs some info. He has already made a neat jig to punch the fancy "tabs" to hold the amp gauge box on the back of the battery box (WD, and WD45). I'll post some pics when he's done to show how it worked.

Anyway, he's making boxes for my WC, WD, and WD45 now. The WD and WD45 are the same correct?

What we need to know:

-On the WD, and WD45, How big are the lips where the removable side plate overlaps the rest of the box?

-On the WD, and WD45, How big is the lip for the battery box lid, where it overlaps the box?

-On the WC, How big is the lip for the battery box lid, where it overlaps the box?

-On the WD and WD45, what are the correct size and location of the cutouts for the battery cables in the lid? (same as what's on the box I would assume?)

-On the WC, what are the correct size and location of the cutouts for the battery cables in the lid? (same as what's on the box I would assume?)

I hope this is clear enough. I appreciate all the help, I'll keep you posted on the progress!

I just answered some of my own questions, by looking at these pics.

No cutouts for battery cables on either box cover it appears.
