Good and strong. I make a Masonite pan pattern, screw the tabs to the Masonite, invert the frame and center the Masonite with the tabs attached. Weld the tabs and unscrew the Masonite. Weld up the screw holes at the same time. The Masonite can be used as a pattern for the aluminum pan. Wish you could get out here for Dean Kanocz' November event and BBQ. Bob Kurkowski is planning to join us. TJ(09-29-2019, 05:28 PM)ted johnson Wrote: You know me, Chris! As a retired Mech. Designer, I think about these things...

I got all fancy and used Cleco fasteners to hold everything in place as I lined the pan up and drilled the holes. I picked the pan up in South Carolina at Robron. Good luck with the restoration!

You guys are the best. I have a new pan being made as I type this hopefully ready by next week. I just have to find time to work on it. I will post some pics if I can figure out how to do it .Can't be that hard. Thanks so much again. I really do appreciate it. Dave |
