Default Some FAT insights...

picked up at the Prairie Command /Shilo Museum...tour this weekend. See pics of artillery board clamp down brackets above mate seat. Also Fat back 4 seat riser brackets mounted on wood blocks. And see the Limber that I am looking for in Canada. Tough. Cheers Rob

Default Van Hove Herman just PM'd me...

looking for a little info on this snatch block location Barry pleasantly surprised us with. He is looking for distance between the hold down bracket...12 inches...and a pic of the hinge used, it looks like a door hinge to me. So the snatch block itself is about a 11 1/2 inch wide..single pulley. Barry maybe you can help us out here? I hope this helps Van Hove. I am still looking for the snatch block. Cheers for now, my golf course just got hit with 2 inches of rain in 20 minutes, a wild event. The work starts in the morning. Rob
