Annexe attachments....

[davenq]

I was given an "old" annexe ...from a reative and the clips looked "spot on" ....(they were 'C" styled .)
.
.when I tried it on ..they were too tight to fit...
.
looked the same style
.
.can you still get the extruded..."brass" (I think it is brass) sections that attach to the van of a narrower guage??
.
.
.other optios (read cost nothing ) is to try and crimp the existing rail so it will fit the annexes "c" section.
.
.the rail looks like a wide U ..with flats on top....

Have discovered today fom the local canvas place ,that they came in two sizes,..5/8th and 7/8th...of course everything is obsolete...

.now to find an old van (wreck) with a 5/8th rail......

There is a big chance that when you go to crimp the Marconi track that it will break....it is very brittle.

My annexe has clips to suit marconi track as well. When i wanted to make an awning clips were obsolete so i just made new ones myself out of stainless flat. If you have trouble folding them up i suggest forming them over a die which is fairly easy to make.
Problem solved
