Brief Description:  Tip Up Frame Strut 8: Platenuts for strut bracket

Putting on the nuts is difficult. One boring day, I decided to make this aluminum plate with platenuts on it. Plate is 1/8 thick. These go on the canopy deck and the bolts that hold the strut bracket screw in. Later when I rivet the canopy deck, I'll take a photo of how they go on. I might even rivet them in place on the canopy deck.

This is one reason why you want to wait to rivet the canopy deck until after you're done with all the structure and done with the canopy.
