skategoat Posted December 9, 2005 Report Share Posted December 9, 2005 I came up with a nifty solution for protecting top sheets from the damaging effects of TD1 cant discs - pot holders. Picked up these silicone pot holders at Wal-Mart for $9.78. They are just sheets of silicone. One of those sheets is the perfect size for two TD1 cant discs. They are waterproof and hey, they withstand heat up to 575 degrees F. You just use your discs as templates. Mark the perimeter and the hole locations. Use a metal ring of some sort to punch out the holes. I used an old BNC connector (silver thing at top of first photo). Works like a charm. Thin and tough.

bschurman Posted December 9, 2005 Report Share Posted December 9, 2005 What does BNC stand for and no looking it up? That would be cheating. Oh, and don't forget to use longer bolts to mount the base plate to the board. TD1s use 10mm use at least a 12mm. ->Ben Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
skategoat Posted December 9, 2005 Author Report Share Posted December 9, 2005 Bogus Nerdish Caakaa? These things are really thin but tough. Doubt you need longer screws. Now I can throw out my ghetto looking inner tube sheets. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Derf Posted December 9, 2005 Report Share Posted December 9, 2005 From http://www.webopedia.com/TERM/B/BNC_connector.html , BNC is short for Bayonet Neill Concelman connector. Quite uninterresting... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Quite uninterresting... I knew it as the Bayonet Navy Connector ...which according to Wikpedia is a less common name for them Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
