Frosty Posted November 24, 2008 Share Posted November 24, 2008 Welcome aboard Derek. We'll be more than happy to help you out but . . . Lobster back bend? Eh? A picture or sketch would be helpful, then again, I'm sure there's someone here who knows exactly what you're talking about. also, if you'll click on "User CP" at the top of the page and edit your profile to show your location there's probably someone close who can lend you a hand directly.

Thomas Dean Posted November 25, 2008 Share Posted November 25, 2008 What size do you need? Same size on each end? How many segments? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
