Hey Cajun Fryer,
Those look fantastic. I have cut several of those posts down. I just pop the white insert out ,cut it down to size and reinsert the white nylon . I use a long piece of all thread with a washer just big enough to slide through the hole and put a nut on it and use it like a puller.Did you CNC the Zebco on the bar? I wish I had one of those to play with.Use to be a machinist myself a long time ago. I been looking at the small CNC's and drooling.I would like to do some crappie license plates like Sixfin does.Take care and see you soon I hope!
