    My Bronze RSS IAB

    I recently purchased this beautiful bronze RSS IAB off of e-stand from Calvin Hall. (Many thanks, Calvin)

    The only problem was that it was missing the hinge and pin and the catch was bent down. Because of this it would not stay in my display case, it just kept sliding down.

      I did a little research to see what kind of hinge and pin it should have. Since I have time and like to create things, I decided to make one.

        I had to straighten the catch. Then I had to make a tool to recrimp the hinge in.

          I think it looks much better now. And it stays where I put it in my case now.

                You made that ball hinge?? Looks really good, very well done.

                If it doesn't have a hinge and catch, I'm not interested......well, maybe a little

                    Thank you all for the compliments. Depending on the circumstances and if it can be done properly, I prefer repaired to damaged.
                    Thanks again Calvin! (hint hint, good and trusted seller on WAF)
