I made a new Dual Chartplotter Bow Mount for one of the Crappie.com members I fish with yesterday. Thought I would share a picture with the rest of the crew. This is made out of 1-1/4in SCH40 Brushed Anodized Aluminum.

Quality work, looks great!
First class right there.
Impressive your weld and fab skills are just as awesome as your culinary skills. Great looking mount
Looks great. Very nicely done.
Nice. Very very nice.
I posted this on BBC and they don't get it. Do bass guys use Livescope or some other form on RTS? I wish I had time to make more of this kind of stuff. I made him a Livescope pole mount as well like the previous ones I've posted. My friends have a cabin rented for the last week of March somewhere near or on Grenada Lake. We are making use of the down time to get all our equipment in top, fish chasing, shape.
Wow very impressive you do great work.
That’s what I call craftsmanship!
After seeing the cooking and now this, I can guess that’s the way your built.
Kudos to you.
I really appreciate people that take the time to do things right.

I'm surprised they didn't love it and I'm on there. . I'm down here by the beach where to do all the tower welding , yours looks just as good as what I have on my ocean boat . Went to my local welder not a tower guys, yesterday to see how much three mounts would be. Almost fainted when I heard their prices.Quote:

I'm on BBC & i like what you done. Looks great in my opinion. Nice job. :ThumbsUpQuote:

My transom replacements were $4-5K and people were happy to pay once they saw how I did them. My T-Tops were minimum $3K for bare top and most went over $4K for the quality. The TIG I use is a Miller Dynasty, really makes welding Anodized easy if you can Bump Weld. My Buds are important to me, here the only guys who want to talk crappie just want me to show them where to fish.
We had lunch today so I took a couple more pictures with the Livescope Transducer Pole I build. The poles are made from Extruded Aluminum Handrail material. Very light but very stiff and strong. I TIG a coped piece of pipe to a round Pad then to the body to form the swivel head. A brass grease fitting and nylon tension thumb screw is added for directional tension adjustment. Depending on the RAM Mount ball size is the Pad sized to match.
