[cool][#0000ff]The "trick" to the whole thing was making the piece of PVC into a connector. I cut a couple of inches down into a piece of sched 40 PVC and then used a heat gun to soften that end. Then I forced a piece of wood down into the softened top and flattened both sides against a table. When cooled and hardened I cut the end to shape and drilled the holes for the bolt/pin to run through. [/#0000ff]

[#0000ff]Better living through PVC...with a little help from a heat gun once in a while.[/#0000ff]

[#0000ff]The opening also makes it easier to launch and beach your ride without having to disconnect a solid foot bar to get in and out of the seat.[/#0000ff]
