To answer questions from several who asked about the tiedown release, the rough machine work was done by friend and KR builder extraordinaire Mark Langford in Alabama. Mark bought a mill and some other shop tools from Carl Vought's widow and this was his first little project on the mill. It's made of a hunk of aluminum scrap milled to rough shape. He also drilled the guide holes for the release pin and formed the pin from a 5/16" carriage bolt that was in the shop. Plans called for a 1/4" pin, but you use what you have.I finish-shaped the piece, rounded the edges, chamfered the holes, found a spring for it, and assembled it. There are a few things that could be done differently to make it a little better, but this one seems to work just fine as-is. Time will tell.Oscar ZunigaSan Antonio, TXmailto: taildrags(at)hotmail.comwebsite at http://www.flysquirrel.net_________________________________________________________________Your Hotmail address already works to sign into Windows Live Messenger!
