HOORAY!

Here is the finished product.

I couldn't take a pic of it all set up on the mount coz it's raining.

The rubber lining inside the rings is from Clark Rubber. I tried several densities at the shop until I found the right one.

I am very happy with the finished product and it ended up cheaper than I expected.


THE COST:

LPG Bottle rings - $55
Base Cradle & all welding - $40
Etch Primer & Black Paint - $20
Hinge (1 cut in half) - $4
Lock bolts & wingnuts - $2
Rubber - $22
2 Dovetail lock screws - 50c

TOTAL - $143.50
