I ordered some today. Freight was a little high 13.50 via priority mail, but if it works it makes it well worth it.

The web site over estimates freight. Only cost 17.75 total for 3ft and postage.

Thanks for posting on both forums Gregg!

Now you have to find windshield channels for all the people that drilled holes for piano hinge ...
LOL !

Yeah....that might be a tall order on that one
I am going to try to solder mine and then sand it smooth.

Gregg and Brandon, instead of windshield channels how 'bout filling the holes with Alumaloy.  My neighbor uses it for his hot rod projects and is pleased with the results. He uses a propane torch to heat the rod.  Sounds easy enough to use.

Sounds like a good product to try. Thanks for the idea John!

Yea many holes for the piano hinge. I may just stay with it.
I didnt see any screws or pins holding mine in. Seemed like it was just crimped in there but very tight. I started picking it out in pieces and gave up. Just left the remnants in place.
