Damn, that thing looks pretty sweet. I do have 2 more side clamps, but I wanted to hold on to them for the time being.If something changes you'll be the first to know.Also, you can get a piece of 1.25" (I think) square tubing, clamp it in a regular head likelike a manual frame, then put the side clamps on it. This would allow a screen width as wideas you like, or as big as your springs can handle.
Will do. I like having at least 2 for when we run a job on the auto and find a defect on a couple pieces.I can set it up real quick on the manual and not tie up the auto.That said, the manual has not moved for a month or so at least.
Yep, both companies actually used to be based in the Bay Area, 20 miles apart or so.My Workhorse has the old San Pablo address, and Hopkins (one of them) still has a storefrontin San Leandro, though I'm not sure what they do there anymore.
When I had my RJennings press I bought a bunch from my local Fastenal store. I just brought when in and said, "I need some of these". If you don't have one you can always bring the bolt to a home depot and sue there little tool to see what the TPI is

I even tried some oldschool mom and pop shops that has funky stuff you cant find anywhere else, no dice...
Look for a specific fastener store. Usually under "fasteners" in the yeller... er google.

Usually under "fasteners" in the yeller... er google.Just checked the regi bolts are M12 , Fastener doesnt go past M10. Still unsure of the rod ends (micros) , starting to think those are custom made for WH. I'm almost thinking about going metal on those and see if there's really any difference.
