The Delignit rails probably would cure this but then Delignit is no longer really wood, is it? :-) Further as the bolts holding the rail loosen their hold due to this expansion and contraction the very flexibilty you are railing against begins to get worse and worse as further E/C loosening happens. Action stack frames w/rails 'could be' cast of kevlar thus removing 'all possibilities' of unwanted movement............perhaps we could get Kelly Johnson and the "Skunk Works" to work on this for us at "area 51" :-) BTW I had someone say they were getting two copies of my posts, list and personal. Is anyone else having this happen with my posts?? Jim Bryant (FL)
