didn't use aluminum. the cylinder is plastic rod with a hole drilled in it. and the ram is straight pins used for himming clothing. hope this helps, dave gave the how too in this thread.

well the heavy chevy is done. over all I'm happy with the turnout. thanks Dave for the cylinder input, and also thanks to all the guys who pushed the chop top. and of cource a big thanks to the transparent orange over wood! I'll be using that one again. and I figured I would post on a couple closeups on some of the helpful tips I mentioned.

well, now she is going under glass. so if you want to see all of her in her glory, I'll see you over there.
