stainless or ali work?
Submitted by mako magic on Thu, 2009-10-15 13:32
Does anyone know of a place close to ballajura/malaga that would be worth using for some stainless or ali work.
im needing some more rod holders on the boat as the rocket launcher only accomodates 5 rods, and because its powder coated i dont really want to touch it, so was looking at getting a rack to fit between the existing rocket launcher and be mounted on the hard top.

as you can see the bar work
as you can see the bar work has a bit of diameter already, im sure those clamp on ones are more suited to smaller diameter tube.

cant recomend anywhere but...
I have a clamp on rod holder on my boat that is bolted onto fairly thick tubing... you can buy inserts to fit different size pipe diameter on the brand i have, got them from bcf (sorry) but they work and they fit good, might be an option, theyre fairly expensive though but just a suggestion if your stuck.
if your interested let me know and ill go look at the brand name they are
Gooooone Fishin!
