Re: What did you do to your boss today?
I dont want to beat this to death.
I'm stating my concerns to try and add to the OP choice of support rod location.
I have no concerns about the spread of the support rods.
Its the angle that they are placed.
All of the stress is on the hinged part of the rods which has a greater chance of floding back or buckleing. Its like taking a pencile and try to break it straight foward. Then put the pencile at an angle and see what it takes to break it, along with a hinged connection. If you could lock the hinge part of the rod it would not be so bad. As for the Viper, I rather see 4 support rods than 2 at those angles any day. Angles play a huge part on how something has to carry the stress load placed upon it!
Thank you and not trying to ruffel anyone.
