If you increase the ring width to about .250, you could punch some holes for some #6 button head socket screws. Then look around for something in a u shape to attach, instead of that tack welded(?) angle piece. You could make a mint, right up until the Chinese steal the design.

yuccales · 02-08-2024, 10:36 PM

That turned out darn nice. Well done!
