Dave, Got a couple of suggestions for you.
First, you could have the rings waterjet cut. This method allows you a variety of materials to choose from since they will be cut from flat material. Second, if the right size of plastic (Delrin works well) or aluminum pipe can be had, you could get them turned on a lathe. Hope this helps, Don Greer Belleville, Ontario On 20-Jan-11, at 6:38 PM, Dave Dunwoodie wrote: > When all you get are blank stares when you ask about a bolt, you go to > the KR list, and here I am!!! > > I built a new panel for my KR2 using aluminum, covered by carbon fiber > for the face.
