Subject: mast parts - correction
Info: (12856 views) Posted: Wednesday 6-1-16 10:50:24 AM

Last year I made a new spreader bar from a stock aluminum extrusion from a wholesaler. The extrusion had square corners which I ground off with a belt sander to match a borrowed spreader bar, and I bent the bar to match the original extrusion. Ballenger said the original extrusion came from a supplier in Australia and was no longer available.

:: mast to fit...
