  Great. To shape the standoffs to fit  perfectly, you can roll a piece of sandpaper on the the main pipe and rub the standoff end on it.

  There are absolute gold nuggets of info throughout this video... V blocks for alignment during gluing,  balanced line stand-off distances, using a core drill to cut & radius the stand-off spacers... Absolute gold dust... Thanks very much. Fantastic video

  Thank you sir. Your crafting skills are high. I am starting in 160m projects and have discovered how much property space is really needed.

  One most professional installs I have viewed. That should last many years. Thank you.

  Thanks for one of the best amateur related videos. &nbsp;Clear and concise with no long-winded intro and weather forecast. &nbsp;Each stage described clearly with no repetition. <br> <br>As a user of doublets for all band use, I’ve had good results using 4:1 baluns.

  I just &nbsp;finished my own doublet, I used 600 ohm window line, got it up 70 feet into the trees, my tall pines sway, so I had to put weights and pulleys on the ends of the antenna... &nbsp;Great antenna, boy you had a lot of intensive work getting those pvc spreaders built and &nbsp;positioned.. &nbsp; &nbsp;I enjoy all your videos... &nbsp;Thanks 73

  Collins, you&apos;ve done a nice job.<br>I think no multiband antenna can beat a multiband doublet once it&apos;s properly trimmed and tweaked.
