In Response To: Re: Strip: cutting the strongback to length. *Pic* (mike allen)

: this is a pic from vaclav's one ocean site where he shows that the strongback
: cut is not necessary to be exact. This then allows one to fine tune the
: location with small wedges as is plainly shown.

: So, overcut and then wedge back to the location you want, then tighten the
: bolt/screws.

I believe that will work. Thanks all, for your input.
