Title: New Floorboard Trim
Post by: Diddly squatt on March 25, 2016, 16:27:31 PM
I made some trims for the floorboards from some of the left over materials from my mud flap project.

And what exactly are the benefits of fringe – fringe benefits? ;D

 Well the original use of the fringe was originally a functional detail, to allow the garment to shed rain, and to dry faster when wet because the fringe acted as a series of wicks to disperse the water.

In the case of PC it also keeps the dust down.......

I actually thought it was an Indian thing – kinda like the motorcycle equivalent of a headdress ;D
