[QUOTE="bonz_d, post: 398922, member: 11276"] There is another way you could do this but it would involve a bit more work, something to cut with, a bench vise and a propane torch. To do this measure the height of the rib, let's say 1". Cut the angle in the corner up 1" then place the angle in a vise and gently heat and then bend one of the cut sides out to a 45deg. angle. That way the pcs that is now bent out can be riveted to the top of the rib and the other pcs. that is still straight can be riveted to the side of the rib as you are doing it now. Also by doing this you could bend the angle so that it is straight up to whatever deck structure you are building. [/QUOTE]
