Well , I took half the night getting the material stuck on the board.. used 3m 77 spray.. put the material on everything! think I got high from the smell.. napped.. then finished..
I like how it turned out.
Lowes and HomeDepot haven't a clue when it comes to those corners Elvad has on his, I am going to try a few regular hardware stores today, then the internet! Those surely make a board look good!!
Neither had a clue to any type washer dogbone style like those sold on ebay, and if you got a bike master link, well thats a few bucks a piece. After looking around, that guy on ebay don't sound to bad at $20.00 for a bunch of'em... again, will check regular hardware stores for these too.
When you look on ebay and online stores, the prices for boards seems so expensive for what you get, but by time you start putting things together and your time spent doing it.. they probably all are worth it.
