She’s a beaut’ Clark! Nice job
So you're aware, I had a hand in designing the upper radiator hose clamp. Please don't steal other people's work.
@Octavian7896Because of his threats, I am most definitely going to create my own ARB mounting brackets.
Kudos for making your own mount, but in my opinion you should not post drawings. It is easy to see something as obvious after you have seen it done or know that it is possible. The best inventions and designs always seem "obvious" or "the only way to do it" in retrospect.Am I in the wrong here guys? I'm open to criticism. That was the point of the post, I wanted Adam's opinion as well as the communities. We know what his thoughts are at this point, but I truly want to know what others think, that was the point and is why I didn't start off by posting the drawings. This was all well intentioned.
What makes you think his intentions were to hurt sponsors as opposed to simply saving money and making something himself? His original post clearly stated he couldn't drop the money, so he made one himself.Plus, I am not sure why a forum member would want to intentionally hurt sponsors that are investing their time and money creating great stuff for our broncos. Especially for these low-volume items where there aren't many interested suppliers.
Hey folks,
I couldn't drop the money for the mount that is available so I made my own. I have a pattern digitized and available, and I do admire that at first glance it is conceptually similar to the available mount; though it is not derivative of it. The geometry just kinda is what it is, not many ways to skin that cat. I'm considering posting it to help anyone out that has a need and a shop. Is it bad form to do so?
“Patent Pending” — Is It Real or Fake News?Has anyone found his patient pending number yet? I would love to read the claims the inventor mades. Having been through the process before i can say there is a big difference between having patient pending and having one issued. I would also be interested in what existing art there is for a bracket like this.
