I made an aluminum luggage rack platform for a moto to sit atop the original rack so that I could carry a very large rack bag.
I've been stuck on how to finish an aluminum support strut that's integral to the last step.
As per usual, I let the project sit for a few days so that a Muse might show up with an idea.
Eureka!...Dzus fasteners.
Pulled the springs off two Dzusii (plural for two), drilled holes in a couple of jam nuts, and Voila!, it's just what will work for what I needed.
Next, I need an idea on how to avoid the wrinkles in shrink tubing around bends.

Ever just want to make something instead of buying it? Not for cheapskate sake, but for the creative reward. (?)
