TD Bonnet Prop from John Redman
As I said in the thread, there was a TD up from Florida at the show last week that had rubber props bolted to the toolbox, one in front on the right side and on the back on the left. I worked for an hour and a half yesterday making my copy of them. The 1st picture shows the left side, bonnet in notch. The 2nd shows the old prop stick (mahogany) on the tool box and the permanent one behind it. I cut up the sole of an old Topsider shoe for the rubber and used a broken horn mount for backing. The props just miss contacting the bonnet in the down position and hold the edge above the toolbox by about a half inch.
