Wondering if the guy/company is still around?? I think the guy was a Stocker Racer in the Mich. area. Thanks Ron Last edited by RJS; 04/11/16 08:59 PM.

The spring clamps themselves are super duper dooky thick and I plan to make them out of Titanium to get a few off. LOL. IIRC the SS were 40 Lbs or so each and the launchers were more or less 45 Lbs each.
