[Rhodes22-list] Mast Crutch

[Jay Friedland]

Ed or others,
Would you know how to tighten screw on mounting block on the cabin top?  
One is actually tight, the other turns with nothing binding. Is there a  
nut behind it, and the liner covers all from below. It seems it only  
holds the ginpole in place, but not sure how much load is on it.
