Hello everyone tonight

here is nother view of the sled showing some more pertinent details

The old hardware gave the proper angles to the outward sloping of the runners, as well as the height from the ground and the overall length

The metal on the runners are in two pieces as was the usual construction technique, the nose pieces come around and down about 6" or so and then the bottom steel comes up to it and meets with a forking technique, and secured at that point with a flat metal headed bolt, (like a stove bolt)

All the large sleigh's metal runners were fastened similar, I suppose to faciliate replacement

enjoy
