Lay it under my keel, I will take a look at it. I can probably beat it back into shape. Might cost you a beer or two, tho.
I used to repair Merle’s Merrimans, and now of course I own them. Bill Coleman C&C 39 Erie, PAanimated_favicon1 From: CnC-List [mailto:cnc-list-boun...@cnc-list.com] On Behalf Of Matthew L.

Wolford Subject: Stus-List Merriman snatch block question Listers: I have an old Merriman snatch block in need of repair. It was under load last season and not properly closed, which caused it to open and bend the stainless straps (on the sides) and the pin holding it together. I believe I can bend the stainless straps back more or less into alignment. However, the pin is bent and in need of replacement. The pin used by Merriman for this block is stainless, 2 1/2 inches long (I’m guessing 5/16 diameter) with a head on one end and internal threads on the other. It is held together by a machine screw that screws into the threaded end. I suppose I could use a stainless bolt, but that would not be very elegant. Any ideas?
