The saga of my lost film came to end this afternoon, so I scanned 
some photos and put together a brief description of the project.

Check it out at 
http://www.thelittlemacshop.com/danscars/tr3braces.html if you are 
interested; basically, it's how I used electrical conduit to limit 
body tub flexing while the tub is off the frame.  It was suggested to 
me by a kind person on the Triumph list (but I can't remember just 
who it was).
