Thanks!! The brackets are Quick-n-easy brand and I bought hem from NRS.com. I don't know if I have a pic or not. The ends of the arms are 1" .250 wall DOM tubing with the 1" square tubing welded to it. They fit into simple brackets that allow a 1/2" bolt to pass through and act as a hinge pin.

Thanks man. Yeah, a bunch of time and a bunch of money too. The guy really did fantastic work for what I feel was an extremely reasonable price. That being said it was still an expensive deal with all of the materials etc. For example; there is over 30' of big lunky brass zippers on this thing. I haven't even come close to getting my money's worth out of it yet, but it sure was nice the other night in the rain.
