Henry, Try West Marine boat supplies. Their stuff is high quality forsailing. They have a good selection of hinges.They also have guide hoops( I forget the exact name) that I used for cableshackles. They work great and are a lot cheaperthan AS&S. There was a good discussion on that on here a while back, checkthe archives. If you don't have a West Marinein your area, they will send a free catalog.Carl----- Original Message -----

The piet plans call for 22 ga>steel. >I've put a few new pictures on my recently resurrected (and still under>construction) website. I've got a few pictures of my wing construction as>well as the Boredom Fighter Larry Harrison has completed - it uses a Chevy>engine , too.
