Forstmann Boom Improvements
(1/1)
US 4618:
I just dropped the cash on a Forstmann boom for my DN....it has some real advantages but also is a little prehistoric on the outhaul and the block adjustments. What improvements are you guys doing? I like the outhaul slug and shackle on my Bryant boom but it isn't easily transferred to the Forstmann Boom w/o cutting the extrusion.
Ideas? Pictures?
Thanks in advance

Most people I know are using the stock outhaul.
The stock block-adjustments are pretty basic.
I've seen various systems where people link the blocks together (ex. with a strip of aluminum or fiberglass) and use a pin or screw to adjust three hangers at once from the rear of the boom. Sorry, I don't have any photos... :(
