<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>Brian, roadsigns are cheap. Sometimes it takes a few minutes to get them loose. The one I've been using for years sure is hard aluminum. I'd be curious as to the designation. BTY you can bend a 2024 wing tube across the front wheel of a low pressure tractor tire without collapsing it for a dihedral change. Nat</FONT></DIV>

<DIV>Ive done something similar to NAT, except I used drywall screws w/ washers and screwed it to the leg of my work bench. That way I didnt have to run down the street and steel the stop sign.</DIV>
<DIV> </DIV>
<DIV>If your going sideways with it Ive screw blocks to my bench and put the header in between...If you havent guessed I dont have a vise.<BR><BR><B><I>Nat Penton <natpenton@centurytel.net></I></B> wrote:</DIV>
