Folks - I've been wanting to make a small shade pergola for my deck, and Lee Valley has a kit now for a canopy which looks like just what I've got in mind. There is a pic on the product page with a pergola which the wife likes, so that's what I'm making.
My question: There is some sort of connector at the post/horizontal piece junction, looks like a wide "L". Look at the upper right picture.

Is there a name for this thing? Anyone know where it can be obtained? I know LV has a different sort of post-top connector, but that takes only a 2x horizontal member, and we like the look of the 16/4.
Thanks,
Ken
