Thanks everyone.
I am considering using the Trek material.

I am still looking for those elusive diagrams I once saw.

Gee Mike
Do you think anyone will read the link this time?
It's the same as I had posted first off, but the people need to belong to the yahoo group and be logged in before it will work.

i just emailed a drawing of the cross section of the rail (with dims) to brian iwanapinz. i might scale the thing and post a solidworks pic if i find time soon.

Dave & Mike,

The links you posted do not account for the 1/4 inch of straight wood before the angle starts.

This one is from the "Files" section of the Yahoo group site, rather than the "photos" section:

if that doesn't work, here's a tiny URL:

- It's obviously not to scale, but the dimensions are spot-on.

Hope this helps!

Depended on the time of day it was built...

.I believe the morning variety was the strongest
