    I think i have pretty much decided that the other jerry can holder will go so that i can have a similar setup to Baz's camper with the battery box at the front and gas bottle at the rear.
    That will allow more space for another battery and not skimp on space for the gas bottle, i will mount the jerry holders to the sides of the storage box on the draw bar.

    Looking at gas bottle rings and it seems there are 4.5kg and 9kg, thing is there are no 4.5kg bottles ? There are 4kg with POL fitting or 4kg with 3/8 fitting which is actually a 3.7KG bottle .
    I have a spare over center latch so i think i will just make my own.

    Done, a quick trip to the green shed for 1m of steel and jobs done.





    Turned out better than i expected, bending the steel around an empty cylinder helped keep the right shape.

    That is why they put the clamp above the weld in the centre of the bottle, just like Nick has done. No chance of it jumping out.
