JAR JAR Posted March 10, 2003 Share Posted March 10, 2003 I also use the sch 40 pvc for a mast and I took the old pulley and spring off the steering of a old boat and bolted them to the mast. Now I have a built in shock absorber.Xplorer, I will talk to my customer today on the white cedar. I'll post when it is available or shoot me your e-mail.Jar Jar Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Xplorer Posted March 11, 2003 Share Posted March 11, 2003 Yup, many ways to skin the same cat!!!Thanks Jar Jar, I appreciate it. Anything to lessen the load/pull on the mast will help. A couple times last spring on very cold mornings i thought it was gonna snap.Just let me know here when/if it is available. Close to 50 this weekend, if we can keep this up maybe we'll be out there in April yet Xplorer Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
