Hi Tom,
Thank you for pointing themout to me.
It is amazing how many things we miss, when we look at the different
catalogues.
I hope they make the double brass rail as well. I don't think the repair
flanges would work for the damper flange sections if they break.
It is still ok, and hopefully it won't break.
Regards,
