KILLING TIME BEFORE THE FFF SERIES FIRST HEET... "REBUILT" THE BROKEN PLASTIC SECTION OF DRAG TRACKS...
I CUT IT OFF SQUARE...
MOUNTED IT TO A STRIP OF FIBERGLASS SHEET 13" X 6"...TAB SLOT DOWNHILL...
ONE ELASTIC GOES OVER THE TOP AND ENDS UP RUNNING LEFT TO RIGHT, PULL A SECOND ELASTIC THROUGH ITSELF TO ENCAPSULATE THE FIRST ELASTIC... WRAP IT AROUND THE ROTATABLE TUBE AND AROUND THE ARM'S HOOK...

.THE TAB ON THE DRAG TRACKS SECTIONS WILL SLIDE UP INTO THE YELLOW SECTION TO ANCHOR THE TRACK...

.WHEN YOU PRESS THE TWO SPRING LOADED [ELASTICS] WASHERS TOGETHER IT PULLS THE SHAFT BACK INTO THE TUBE, RELEASING THE PLEXIGLASS DOOR.

.

That's cool and all but isn't the track kinda short?.........................

aye- uh...

Stoller - that is why he needs that fancy new timer!

Is that 'checkered flag' duct tape on the base, Smitty?

it is...
