I am planning to mount a solar panel on a Troyer gourd rack.

The rack is already up and occupied, but I really would rather not be out in the electrical storm that's in this area at this time to measure the arms myself: Does anybody know what the diameter of Troyer gourd rack arms is?

Hi David,
If they're the arms that can be simply lifted up and removed from the bracket (like these shown in the below PMCA Store photo), then they are listed as 3/8" in diameter.
Note: they top perch rods are also listed as 3/8" in diameter.

Thanks - exactly the info I was needing. Plus, you kept me from getting electrocuted and/or soaked this morning. :grin:

You're most welcome.
Glad you avoided electrocution as well. 8)
