Fred-

The check is in the mail seriously if you can cut wood with a chain saw then you can make a bracket. Calculated cost for the big bracket is around $700 including glass, resin, partall, wax, clay, rollers acetone, wood for molds etc... A smaller bracket will be cheaper.

Greg-

After looking at the pictures of your house remodel... I'm jealous One of these days we need to hook up... heck were only 1 hour apart!


Working nights and weekends when my day job does not interfere.

Quick fair on the live well enclosure. I hate sanding and fairing and would have rather made a finished part for this application but it would have took forever doing the tooling for the mold so I am stuck sanding and fairing out what I have created. Soon I can spray it with primer and sand and fair some more!





Made room for the little boat in the shop and it is now on stands. It will not leave the shop until at least the out side is painted.








Plywood strips that will act as a shelf for the base that holds up the live well



Glassed in place. I still have to cap off the ends.



For the actual base I laminated a piece of 5/8" core cell on the flat table. To speed things up I layed up both sides and then covered it in black plastic and weighted it down till it cured.
