Thanks dc, finally had a break in the sucky weather here. Sun was out half the day for the first time in 3 days. Maybe you will get a break over there, so you can get back on your build.

Just looked into that Fiber Fix link you gave. You know, it looks a lot like, and activates the same as plaster of paris in orthopedic casts. Wonder if it's the same thing? Regardless, for that price it would be worth a shot.
Like I said I have not used it, but it should work, as it is not a moving part. Much easier than trying to weld all those cuts!!!! I would try it if I was in that situation. But like I said, I only saw one break, it was just too ugly for commercial use. Had to buy a bender. Wish I still had some of that stuff.
Next problem will be getting the trim to bend around it.

I ordered it, so we'll find out. If it has to be in several layers like the video and pictures show, then it will get used for some other project. No way I'd be able to get the skinning over the wad they show in the pics. Like you said though, it'll just be for a little added protection, so maybe I will be able to make one or two passes and it still work the same.

Yup, we must have caught the same band of rain.

Man SoCal sucks, no rain 80 degrees, riding my bike today. Now add, illegal aliens, pot holes, gang bangers and idiots on the freeway, give me good old Omaha Nebraska!!!! Just joking, moved from that frozen wind hole 50 years ago. Here till I die I am sure. Would love to be in Utah, I truly love that state from every aspect.
Hope you get some done on it Medic. Looking forward to how that wrap stuff works. I bought a roll of it for emergencies. But it sounds like it may be too bulkiy for some instances. I guess we will know whey you get it.

Come on to FL skers, you'll get all the rain you need! I hope the wrap works out. Sure would be easier than trying to weld sheet metal bracing to them.
Thanks aero, I didn't know they had it Lowes. I go there enough I should know every item they have. I will keep that in mind. Thanks for the info!

Aero, same deal, have had it setting in the trailer for a month or so. Never have needed, but felt it might be an option down the road. Not a huge box or anything to carry around. Be prepared when you drag a trailer, not only for yourself, but it seems everyone thinks you have the kitchen sink with you!!!
