Default I had them made at local sheet metal shop

Hi Jordan

When I need them for Pat 13 C60S and the HUP had them made up at a local sheet metal shop, probably cost less than having them shipped. Will try and find the dimensions and drawing and post them.

Bigger issue is attaching them and sealing them. Originally they were pinch welded which unless all the steel is bare and clean is hard to do. If I was doing it now think would do as Bob and others at Hammond Barn suggested and use the adhesive used on door skins.

Cheers

I made up the rain gutter last night. Today I'll be making up the other one. I've got a sample of each to work from. I just don't have the length of them.

Im planning on plug welding them in place. Then I'll soak the POR15 into the gutter to seal the seems.
