    Boar Hunt Pot Lid Help!

    HI Dirranbandi, Thanks for offering to take another look. Unfortunately I am unable to attach clearer pictures as pictures must be under 200kb and every time I shrink the picture, the quality suffers. The pot lid face is domed. It isn't possible to get a side view as the lid is wedged...
