Hi All,

Have a quick question about the skid beams & pillars.

I have fitted all the pillars in accordance with the instructions, all equi-spaced & aligned.

I am now about to fit the skid beams. they're all assembled & to length.

When I place them on the pillars & square them up I get about 1/3rd of the pillar top showing each side of the beam, I realise that this is due to the offset of the beam assembly but think it looks a bit naff.

Wondered if anyone had any ideas to make it look better, did think about painting the pillars black to match the beams & hide it a bit but don't really want to remove them.

Thanks in advance.

Hi Wilfy!

I avoided this problem when I realized that the grates were to wide back in May, I removed the grates and reduced them. Then I fitted the pillars on the grates over the cannon ball channels a little adjustment was needed but the skid beams fitted just right, here is the link:-

If you don't want to remove the beams to make wider ones, then as you say paint the top of the pillars black.
