I like the way you've provided a 'neutral' position to allow stock to trail through. Neat!

Certainly some interesting ideas Tony. Thanks, I can see myself making use of that in due course.

Very interesting, the brass certainly looks sturdy :thumbleft: , but how will the perspex hold up to the light outside?

Hi Jimmy,

How will the perspex hold up to the light outside?

I am sure I miss named it, I think it is acrylic not perspex so should be OK.

There is now a Mark 2 version which can work on the original tie bar as well a a replacement one. It is more compact and easier and quicker to make.
