there used to be a welder on the street between a st and strawberry hill. it was always a crap shot as to weather he was there or not but we did a couple of small jobs for me and gave me some scrap stock to try and make jigs with.

What kind/sizes of stuff you looking for?

My technician's machine shop has some stuff laying around.

1/8"x10"x12" would be perfect for the job. better if bent 90* on the 10" side 6" from end and drilled and painted to match boat. but he's flexible. :laugha: just not familiar with the areas for his new needs.
thx for the info.
