Hi

A 9 mm space between the back and the front mat using 3 glued strips of 3 mm foam core. Double sided tape can also be used to hold the spacers together. I hope this helps.

Regards

John

Default Helpful websites for NZ badges
Hi

I mainly collect badges worn by WW1 NZ badges. I have found the following sites useful as reference sources on these badges:

https://nzhistory.govt.nz/war/nzef-units
http://www.britishbadgeforum.com/for...hp?albumid=209
http://www.britishbadgeforum.com/for...hp?albumid=207
http://www.britishbadgeforum.com/for...p?albumid=1575
http://www.britishbadgeforum.com/for...hp?albumid=223
www.tapatalk.com/groups/militarianz/

Also Geoff P. Oldham, Badges and Insignia of the New Zealand Army, www.milimem.com

As well as the invaluable contributions of Pukman, Attilathehun, Tinto and others on this site.

I hopes this helps

Cheers

John
