Rod Rushton escribió:I had this problem when I was doing my GPW. I looked at all the sets on offer, and they were all different - and I thought rather expensive.
I made up my own from commercially available flat braided earth strap, the lengths culled from the "All American Wonder"page which lists them - but mostly, not all correct for various years. Also the cost of these kits were quite high.
I tinned the ends with solder and used 15mm copper water pipe, cut into suitable lengths, depending on the size of the holes to be drilled, and partially deformed them in the vice, enough to slip the soldered ends of the strap into. These were then flattened around and soldered onto the previously tinned ends, before drilling the requisite sized hole through.
The soldered end pieces prevent the braids from splaying out, are easy to drill and are solid enough to bolt down to make a good contact.
I then sourced star washers as required. I used plumbers flux in the greasy form, which I washed off the excess afterwards with petrol
With a little practice they were very easy to make and quite satisfying to produce. I used about 6' / 2 metres of earth strap and about 30"/ 80mm of copper pipe, and they cost about a third of the shop bought ones.
