The Grips

Now, we'll work with the grips. The grips used in the films were off either a German or British tank but even if you could find them, the chances of the wipers being intact are pretty slim. Rubber tends to rot over a few years of being out in the elements.

Unless you know how to sculpt and mold already, you may want to purchase pre-made grips from Blast-Tech.

It is possible that these pieces were actually T track material that was used in cabinets in the 1970's. At this time, we have been unable to confirm or deny this information.

Position one grip on the bottom half of the tube at the twelve o'clock position. Then, line up another exactly 180 degrees away. Continue lining up the grips in this manner, making sure you leave an even amount of space in between the grips.
