Looking at all the equipment around the yard that he's built I'd say he's very knowledgeable.

Straightening aluminum boom tang

If they are aluminum plate you can bend them..
Reason you can't slip some teflon sheet in there is because the tang edges aren't parallel?
Max, it looks like a weld in that picture?
I thought it looks like a cast aluminum fitting.
Looks like a weld or a very cuzzy casting ;^)
If that is a casting
Hi Max...
I wouldn't worry about breaking the aluminum plates as much as I would the welds but it does't look too bad from here...
Thanks for the thoughts
The expander bolt will work imho
