Brief Description:  03 - Map holder pressure plate # 2

Map holder pressure plate # 2

First I Alumiprep'd, Alodined and primed some parts, then made another short pressure plate for the top of the map holder. I want to be able to slide a map in without pulling on the handle, so I needed something to hold the top edge out slightly. Doing this also stops the top line of rivet tails from tearing into the maps. Documents now get pinned at the top and bottom, with the large pressure plate flexing at the bottom edge (to match the thickness of the material) and the top pressure plate setting how far open the map holder is. It seems to work pretty well on paper, and also on paper :-)

Time will tell whether the handle is anoying or dangerous to my thigh in a potential accident. If it is, then I'll simpy trim it off and fit something different.
