Final mock-up before we go buy the steel

Yesterday Dobby came and we clamped into place some scrap metal pieces to measure and make final decisions for the tongue repair.

Decided that we would need to bend steel to fit better inside the hitch.

Imagine a cross piece in there too. You can see the support pieces that will be clamped into place next to the frame pieces and then welded to provide strength.

Pondering.....

Cutting the mock-up to make final measurements.

Field trip next!
