thanks

Kevin245, thanks very much for taking the time to respond to the thread. I certainly looked at your own thread with considerable interest as I was looking through the forum listings. You did a great job turning the new aluminum end caps for your awning. I don't have access to a metal lathe, so I will probably have to go with plastic end caps again.

I would be very interested in any pictures and information you could provide when you replace the spring on your next awning project. The inner workings of the roller tube are a complete mystery to me at this point.

Thanks also for the cautionary safety notes, I have read that the spring tension is not to be taken lightly.
