Step 6Frame Lashings

Frame Lashings
Here are the frame lashings I replaced the hose clamps with.
They look fancy but there's no real advantage to doing it this way rather than some other uglier lashing.
Just wrap some string around the parts you want to stay together.

I used nylon string soaked with water. Then when the string dried they got tight.
Nylon elongates more than 10% when wet.
Then I soaked them with epoxy to make them permanent.
