  What a great solution! Long before Hipshot came up with a three point replacement I did drawings for my own version. After HS came out with theirs I pretty much dropped the idea. I just don't have the resources to compete.

There can be only one...

If research was easy, it wouldn't need doing...
Staring at that event horizon is a dirty job, but someone has to do it; something's going to come back out of it one day...
