Ah, I didn't realize that was your doing. It took my so long to get all that crap off. No worries. It's in a better place now, .

Honestly, just some good old flat aircraft-grade aluminum strips. Either that or some stainless steel strips or rods. I'll see if I can't punch something up for you.


Double post because I am lazy.

All I have is sheet metal roof flashing. I will pay if you can come up with something better.

Mmm, fiberglass. Some chop mat and resin go a long way. Not much now, but it's a start. And boy oh boy is it strong.

If there were no signatures I would say fix the stupid thing and make it look pretty.

OH! I KNOW! Fix everything, sand it all down, re paint it, get them to sign it again with their phone numbers in case it gets wrecked again!



If only it were that easy.

I didn't think of fiberglass, probably better than the aluminum strips due to the load-sharing qualities. Nice thinking!
