Steve Beckman,

I have redrawn my manifold bracket to accept the flanged type header
tube. The four holes are to accept the top clamp plate. I have made the
plate a little bigger to accommodate this - now if I can only work out
the best way to do the flanges, but I'm working on it.

George, please save those screen captures as jpg's and not bmp's.

Paul,
I have tried again, both JPG's and in Paint.

You almost have it George. After you do a screen capture from Auto Cad
and paste it into MicroShit Paint. Grab the drawing and move it up and to
the left until all the extraneous auto cad stuff is blocked off.
then use the Image > Attributes in the pull down menu's to set
the right and bottom pixel number limits. Save as jpg. That will crop off
the rest of the extraneous autocad stuff. I had to do that
with your dwg's but I used a Linux program called gimp which
does it quicker and faster and can also scale the dwg up and down.

Most 3D cad programs do that automatically when you render
the dwg and save it as a jpg. BTW there are a bunch of free dwg and 3D
programs out there for Linux. One of my favorites dwg prog is xpaint.
xpaint will crop directly.
