3: These are the three sub-assemblies required to
make the bumper.
STEP 3:
I then assemble the components. I solder the 1-1/4" and
1/2" rail pieces at 90⁰ angles to each other, making mir-
ror pieces. I wire-brush any solder residue from the rails.
I glue (using fast setting CA) the two 1/4" wood tie pieces
next to each other to form 1/4" wide pad, two ties high.
When dry, I glue the pad to the top of the 5/8" wood tie
which becomes an upright support for the pad.
