CambridgeCabby Posted June 12, 2017 Author Share Posted June 12, 2017 Thank you for your replies , both offerings although obviously purpose made aren't really what we were picturing , on a previous hire boat (cannot remember which boat sadly) there was a steel? disc with raised lip which the weight sat on(in) , looks like I will have to find a fabricator for one Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wildfuzz Posted June 12, 2017 Share Posted June 12, 2017 Find a local wood turner, simple job and wood (lol) look great in a range of timbers. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Timbo Posted June 12, 2017 Share Posted June 12, 2017 I'm currently drawing up plans to incorporate one into the bow peak I'm making for Royal Tudor. I've got a collection of hardwood offcuts so I'm hoping to laminate a design and cut out on the bandsaw before applying my bowl cutter bit on the router. If I run into trouble I will be calling on a friendly local woodturner! Are listening Wildfuzz? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
