Overview Of Parts - 1BinderChocksOverview.jpg

Here is my intitial list of items needed to build the Binder Style Chocks. Drill bits are 13/32 and 1 1/4 for a through hole(may not use). Binders are from Northern for $6.50 each. I also used a miter saw for cutting the blocks.

Here it is installed. The top is double nutted and the lower piece has the relief cut in it to allow the handle to lock in place. I am not sure I am completely happy with the look of them. I probably will cut down the rod and remake the blocks a few more times before I am satisfied, but this is the basic idea for anyone else interested. They work just as well as I had hoped. I don't think there is another homemade(or store bought) chock solution that can beat these tool-less chocks.

Burn away the poly strands - 22AirBagBurnEdges.jpg

The poly strands drive me nuts. You can't trim them, they keep coming out. Use a lighter and burn them all along the edge. Another option would be to use a soldering iron. You could stick it down each of the bolt holes to do a quick seal before final bolting and then along the edge for a seam seal. Not necessary, but an option...

Valve Stem Installed - 16AirBagValveStemInstalled.jpg

When applying the rubber cement, use your finger to apply a small coat to the washers and the bag, inside and out. Let all areas dry for a minute or so, you can blow on it to speed up the process. The bonding of rubber cement takes place bonding 2 dried layers of rubber cement to make the bond. Rubber cement never drys hard, it will always remain a rubbery substance, which should be of benefit here.
