Well,
here are the teak wood DEC Axis Braking System Teflon Pivoting Arms
before I give up on these little guys and go with aluminum, here is a
look at them. As previously mentioned, these components will be used in
applying pressure to the left and right declination shafts. Currently,
they are in use and are doing quite well. But, if I have to apply more
force with the tension adjustment screws, they could split. Note the
hole in the arm just below the virgin Teflon pad. This is the pivot point of
the unit - one on each side of each DEC axis. To see a diagram of the
Declination Axis Braking System showing the placement of the Teflon Pad

Here... Not the best diagram, but in conjunction with the photos of
DEC Axis Brake System, it helps.
