I am wondering what other Minimax owners did for the runner that goes into the carriage slot.
My slot is tapered, coming to an edge at the top surface. This means high loads (and wear) if a straight runner is used. At the bottom of the slot it is wider (essentially it is a 'T-slot' used for sliding hold downs through it).
Had anyone tried using the sides of the lower portion of the slot? Some pros/cons to this.
Else how do you handle the high pressure points of being a psuedo sharp edge right at the top? (where location would be ideal)
I have an idea for a somewhat complicated design to account for wear, etc. But thinking some clever person here has already solved this.
