Roo Posted July 11, 2010 Share Posted July 11, 2010 Started off writing this as a p take ... but its was actually really effective so thought id stick it in here! (move it if the mods dont agree) Thoresby was a might bit windy today and Bladesgrant wanting to have his bonnet up was suffering from some "wind" problems.. Fear not ... for a boyscout was on hand to devise a solution. SO here is a quick guide to the soon to be trademarked grant-marky high wind bonnet stay. Tools required Madmarky Lighter (inc) String Old wristband or sticker. Take marky and apply to string with lighter (be aware that excess may be delt with later - see fig 2) Loop string between top bonnet catch :- Fig 1. and catch. n.b. attach to armature to create damping effect. n.b.2 note excess string securely tied to prevent fouling fan. Fig 2. Secure sticker as garnish.... Fig 3. Stand back and admire your diy handywork.... Fig 4. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BladesGrant Posted July 11, 2010 Share Posted July 11, 2010 Marky is a knot legend. My bonnet was rock solid after this on-site mod. Just a shame I left before the drop top category!!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BladesGrant Posted July 12, 2010 Share Posted July 12, 2010 GB anyone Me and Mark already have all the rights to the string and how its tied. I am sure we could arrange a GB though, we are currently out of stock so there is a 12 week lead time!!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
