Default The blue clamps....

Thanks for cleaning up the shelters and the doorways.

The blue clampes are 4 for $20. at Princess Auto.

They are made of section of square steel used for hanging external shed doors.... a few wing nuts... plumber copper tape, spring, etc.

The centre piece is made of plumber tie strap made of solid copper. We broke one today the copper strap got wedged too tight and I pulled too hard..... however easily replaced.

Rob forgot to mention the delicate dentistry he is doing with the MIG welder....... the final product should leave not trace of having a patch butt welded. Now a good body man could do it in 15 minutes.... at the barn we take a little longer but get it done right. Everything we do is usually new to us so we learn as we go. Tomorrow we plan to take the nose off the cab 11....again... for further refinements.



Cheers
