I stuck together a wide one and a narrow one today.
One hurdel I have discovered is locally a CNC profile cutter is a bloke with a calculator in one hand and an acetylene torch in the other. But after todays playing it should be no probs doing batches of 10 once I have made a jig up.
O well just been spoiled in Aberdeen where spark eroders and CNC gear is ten a penny and can be hired for bottles of whisky. Will have to wait until I am next through there. I had forgotten what it was like not to be able to wander around to a mates work or fire the MASHY wagon up.
I think the techy drawing clip will be best along with the bulldog clips as normal. You don't want it to secure it, just hold it. And the clips can be bent so that all you need is to give it a one handed push and its held but can be free'd up without fiddeling with anything. I am just going to clamp it with the grip for the webbing or the clamp for the pen holder in the oppersite corner from the one your using. So its pretty easy to shift it if you don't want it.
Got a sample of that none slip stuff winging its way to me.
Got the webbing from BnQ so all I need now is the quick release and a clip for the top. Hopefully I will have an email tomorrow from a promo clipboard manufacturer with some options.
So far
AL plate is 4 quid for 300mm*300mm*3mm
2m of webbing and some 4mm bolts and lock nuts 3 quid.
And 2 hour's having fun fannying around in the workshop.
So BEagle we might very well get it done for 15 quid.
