Hi Wout I was checking out the screen fit and realized there was nothing to hold the top of them to that rail bar. Checking the instructions to see if I missed something,Tristar wants you to just glue them to the bar,Naaaaaaa My Aber PE set has 18 of these hangers for the top and all I need to do is figure out how to hold these little guys while I solder in that center plate.

;D I figured out a way to hold these with 2mm wide wooden square pegs glued to a steel V block. There's not enough surface area for glue to hold the little center plate so they had to be soldered.  Once I got the hang of it it didn't take very long to do all 18.  Need to bend some pins and that finishes that task. BTW 4mm wide 3mm high 1 1/2mm front to back Later Tony |

Thanks Some of the glue from the pegs melted to the brass and i'll have to clean that off but otherwise the solder flowed real nice. Humped over the bench is hard on the old back,it's aspirin time.  Tony |

Since you guys are all pumped up about these Thoma schurzens here's a little something to tide you over till Monday. ;D There are three panels per side and this is the center panel. The screen is sandwiched between those reinforcing strips top and bottom and of course the three upper hangers.  All soldered up  Time to rest my back so chill out you task masters Tony |
