Good afternoon Gentlemen and Ladies,

As promised here is an update on the task of making a new Sphinx for the Officers Shoulder Belt Plate.

Here are the castings of the Sphinx's taking from the moulds in solid silver, after sourcing a jewellery maker, I today I took them to the jewellers where they will be fashioned and all the excess silver removed and fastening to the rear made.

Not sure how long it will take but Scott is an experienced expert jewellery maker.

Cheers
Hiram
