    Pretty keen to see how it finishes up myself

    Just trying to work out struts and a system to lock the swing arms open, been through a few ideas but nothing that really floats my boat just yet.

    Cheers Andrew

        Andrew, did you sneak into the shed over Easter to do any more work on the rear bar?....

          Not as much progress as I would have liked, just waiting for a piece of the puzzle to arrive, should have been here mid last week, hopefully today.

          The bar (mine) is all but finished, hopefully I can bolt it back on in the next day or so and get some pics.

          I have started reverse engineering a second bar with a couple of minor changes that will be the one to go for towbar testing, I am making templates and jigs based on the prototype and making the second bar using these to make sure it fits. I decided in the end to build a universal jigging table and am waiting on the steel to arrive for that, hopefully that should be here today or tomorrow.

          So full steam ahead after that.


          Cheers Andrew
