[QUOTE=ChampionShip;199274]I think i'm going to put a metal plate around the area where a radar should be mountetd maybe? 1/4" aluminum? On hand we have 1808, 2415 and 3 oz mat. Can probably arrange others if need be though.[/QUO


the "hoop" for the top's gonna be framed - in the center,you can weld a plate,and in the areas where you want to mount antennas,you can weld plates there as well...

fastest,easiest way is to make the top from a skin - no need for coring - the antenna plates are taking the stress of the load from the antennas,not the skin...
