    Default Geez I Needed a Breeze.........on the Fish Cleaning Station


    Thought I would share this as it really helped with the heat today cleaning fish. I still can't count fish while fishing, thought I had 8 but 11 came out of the cooler. How does that happen? I have at least 10 fingers to count with.

    Anyway this is a piece of scrap aluminum sheet that was lying on the floor of my shop.

    When bending the blower holder up I made sure to allow enough for the 2x4 so the blower would hang straight. I used my Brake to do the bending but I think in a 6in vise it could easily be done.

    Soon I'm getting a Fish Cleaning Station Face Lift. Right now my cleaning station works. With most of the trees gone the Umbrella is a welcome addition along with the blower.

    A brake is one of those tools that you can have for 5 years and never touch but the moment you do need it, you can make a tough job a lot easier and you sure get some use some useful fab work done with it. That was a good idea, and it will sure make cleaning all those fish easier.

    I bet that’s pretty cool in the shade and the air blowing right on you. Good job Rojo!

    You are on point about the Brake. It is over 10 years old and still sitting on the shipping crate. Makes it easy to get the Bobcat forks under it to pull away from the wall for bending long sheets of aluminum. I bend steel with it too making wheel tubs & stuff.
