Help me understand. The door stay kit I’m using comes with a pin but it’s too big for the hole. I could make the hole bigger but there’s still no groove for a clip. Stock pin on right

(IMG:style_emoticons/default/agree.gif) So my plans to be buried in space in my 914-6 are out then. Just one more complicated issue, to keep me from being payload in a Virgin Galactic flight. Floating pins = space junk, just waiting to take out some billions of dollars communication satellite, that then will fall on my estate to cover bringing grief to my family, destroying what is left of my Finical empire. All $9.14 cents of it.
(IMG:style_emoticons/default/av-943.gif) Lots of ways to solve the issue Mark, maybe a piece of paper with words on it describing why the pin is oversized and that gravity here on planet earth, makes the clip redundant. Maybe that would have saved a few people paint, or at least gave them understanding. Thank you for the clarification btw, it does help. You (914Rubber) just like all our vendors are trying to fill a need for the community. Filling that need and providing great service is what pays the bills, but as you have most likely learned 10000000000s of times over, you can not make one decision with out it effecting other items. It is all about the combo as Jake Raby would say. |
