The laser paper looks like an innovative and low cost idea to me, and it will be interesting to see how they look. I have faith in DKS's abilities to think outside the box.

Best wishes, Dave
If you lend someone $20, and never see that person again, it was probably worth it.

They look more than adequate to me and very affordable.

Dave, I'm sure I've seen used tie plates in MOW gons, so you also have an option there for a future load.

I've got just the spot for both the old and new tieplates/joiners!  Beautifully done DKS... :D

DKS, what did you use to mount the mirrors and stop sign with?

Awesome stuff as usual.

Thanks,
Brian

He asks excitedly "Did you say Ménage à Trois?"
No, I said "Ed's Law."

Love the tie plates and connectors.  I wish they were separates, to be strewn individually along the rails.
Failing to prepare is preparing to fail.

You're slacking Dave, the holes are round in the tie plates! J/K

This is a great addition to the Maintenance Shop clutter!

I just touch the ends of the mirror mounts (or whatever) to a drop of thick CA, then position on the vehic.

Actually, they're drawn as square, but unfortunately laser beams are round!  ;)

In actuality I don't think people realize how tiny these are. The laser will cut tiny squares quite nicely but these squares were beyond tiny, more like microscopic. Just wait until you get them in your hand, you'll be looking for the holes period!!!  8)
