I'm always fabricating something and while I was over at my Bud's I took a picture of a 16in Pedestal Pin I TIG welded 2 7/8OD anodized aluminum railing pieces to last Thursday. 2 clamp-on rod holders were added and fine tuned to position for ease of use. Now a convenient rod holder was always near.

I made the T-Top on this boat 7-8 years ago. I build them totally custom to follow the existing lines of the boat.

Man some sweet work!
Very nice. Looks good.
Very nice craftsmanship
I like that. But now you need to replace that seat with a recliner. :biggrin
I found a old backup drive that had pictures on it of past projects. I will add a few unique jobs. The T-Top above had more pictures on that drive.

I fabricated the Bed on my old Mule. We named this rig the "Chuck Wagon" because as the Kids on the Plantation shot Doe deer I would ride by and load them up. The Boom behind the Shooting Bench has a Super Winch on it. The Boom swings down over the back of the Bed allowing the winch cable to drop down where I could hook it to a "Leg Grapple" that bundled all four legs together for lifting the harvest. Once the Hook hit the Pulley on the Boom the Boom lifted and swung the deer into the Bed piling them on top of each other. My max was 5 as the front tires started skipping off the ground. Since it is a working Plantation the fields would have "Rows" in them. As I crossed the rows the front tire would touch and I would already have the steering turned in the direction needed so each row made a correction to my direction. Fun times, I needed that Mixer & Grinder very frequently back then. I gave this Mule to my Step-Son and it's still going today. I carried my Rifle in the box on one side (very padded inside) and my Xtrema2 on the other. Ducks or Deer I was always ready.

Cool. I'm sorta looking at a Mule for working in the fields. I really want one with a dump bed. The BIG problem is.... I don't have any money :Rofl
Oh, the Mule was given to me or I swapped something for it, it was not even running. "Reverend John" is what the locals called me here for years. They use to say "I would lay my healing hands on something and resurrect it".Quote:
