Proto 1...

I took the measurements of the mounting points and the angles of the trellis sub frame and drew up a prototype in CAD. I took some steel tubing and bent it to the correct angle, crimped the ends drilled some holes and there you have it! I left a little extra on the ends just in case I had to adjust the holes a bit. I will trim the ends later and also paint the tube black.

The supports were surprisingly rigid for being mounted with only two bolts. More to come soon!...
