Non-pen roof peak mount

Thu Nov 13, 2014 11:34 am

Something small enough to hold a single Nanobridge etc. Thinking a 1' wide 1' deep for single block on each side of peak. Pirate4

If you are not averse to a DIY solution, you could take a small tripod and lag bolt two 16"x24" concrete pavers to it, one with two legs on it and the other with one leg with some chain between the two.

If 16"x24" is too big, you could go with three smaller pavers, maybe the round ones. You'd want the one that is by itself on the other side to be bigger to balance the weight of the other two.

The first time i read this, I did not realize that you were looking for a ridge mount. Good luck finding that. You are probably going to have to fabricate it yourself.

I don't think anybody makes one for a single block -- it's not really enough weight on each side.
