[Rhodes22-list] Pop top hardware

[Lowe, Rob]

I can check the thickness of mine over the weekend.  If you plan to make, here is some dimensional info.  - rob

True, that is the one I was asking about, although it looks simple enough, I
will probably make one, also, the tabernacle pin it shows on that page looks
like it has a compression sleeve that should go inside the mast, if there is
much force at all when the nuts are tightened on either side, this would
seem like a very good idea, to keep the mast from being crushed. The gauge
of metal used for the hinge looks like 1/8" or less, anyone able to confirm
or know what thickness this is?
