The S-38B has a cardboard back and bottom. Only the early runs of the
original S-38 had a metal bottom with a cardboard back. All the later
versions the S-38A, S-38B, etc. had cardboard bottoms and backs.

Ed,
Thanks for the quick reply. I saw a place on the net that had the
backs for the S-38 and the A model but a little trimming would do the
trick. Another site had the template for the bottom also. Would you
happen to know what size the rubber grommet/feet were on the bottom?
Thanks,
Bob Grimes
