Re: [DML] Modified Trailing Arms For 1/2" Bolts

[stevedmc@xxxxxxxxx]

Back in 2000 a meatball sandwich at Subway cost $1.99.  I know this because I was a poor kid just finishing high school. 

Today the same sanwhich costs $3.49. I know this because I am poor white trash.  

Based on the laws of subology a set of "Toby TABs" should cost about $131.532663 today.  

It would be silly for anyone to think they should still cost $75 for a set.

Toby claimed at the time that his Inconel 718 bolts were nearly 220,000 lbs tensile strength, 200,000 lbs yield strength, but Inconel 718 bar stock does not come up that high in online searches. He included a lab test sheet with his bolts, but mine is long gone (anybody save theirs?).
