Hey Feeder

Looking Good .. very sturdy plate and gimble for sure!

Your angle attachments also the Gimble Cup look good, and the stainless hardware will last. The closed cell foam padding will keep the saltwater from getting underneath and causing corrosion.

Only thing I'd recomend for improvement is opening the holes for your Drop straps up so the clasp has plenty of room to move and is easy to attach or remove. A Unibit will work... just push inward toward the plate so it cuts way from the outside edge.

Thanks Bazz. I was thinking of making the drop strap holes larger too. I might mount some hardware on it to make detaching it easier although I'm not sure yet. I'll have to play around with it a bit more to see what my options are.

Out of curiousity who gets to use the one you and Skeeter made?

Just used some slow cure epoxy and spread out an even coat over the metal. I was going to use a spray on adhesive but I thought this might be more durable.
