What sorts of methods are used to install sliding dampers? I am interested in seeing photos of these installed, possibly during the build.

It will take me some time to dig up some photos of build sequences with bypass damper installation. In the mean time, here are three pages from one of our plan sets, that show the set up and installation of [the Z106 bypass damper](https://www.firespeaking.com/product/z106-bypass-damper/):

This really helps! No need to go digging for photos, this is above and beyond what I was looking for. Thank you.
