Re: Ground Stud

yeah our team did not recievec any ground stud, i took a piece of angle al and drilled a bunch of holes in it. the botom is electricly insulated from the chaises with a piece of lexan that was epoxyed to it (over the bolts). as long as you dont touch the frame, almost any handy piece of metal works great.

last year i had a fun experence with a home made ground bus, the bolts shorted to the frame and when the positive lead of the battry went floping around... big blue spark! dont do it
