Nice pull tab
I saw this nifty pull tab on Ron Moring's BEAUTIFUL RV-8A over the weekend.
He said he bought it but doesn't remember from where.
Anyone know the source?

And I thought you were talking about the pull tab on a beer can.

Make a drawing of it with a few dimensions and I could make one for you.

Looks like a rope cleat from a marine store to me.

I actually machined those a few years ago. I was making one for a friend and ran a few extras. I probably have one laying around if you are interested send me a PM. For the longest time I used one as a bathroom door stop.

I'm with Mike, the only pull-tabs in my hangar are in the fridge.

pull ring
Jesse, Thanks for the compliment but I better get on that ugly twisted off screw in the upper left corner. Luckily it was the only one in the entire canopy. Thanks Ron
