Sometimes the best solutions are the easiest,
and yes sometimes that means being a copycat to another design.
The solution to this problem was obvious from the get go.
The tricky part was trusting measurements,
and utilizing only scrap material.
I tested it out but wasn't the lucky one to actually need it.
This was much easier for them,
rather than laying on the stomach with a concrete drill.
That old life raft is not as tippy as it looks.
Hmm let's see here's some old pictures.
If you can't grind, plasma torch, fit and weld on a little raft 18" from the water,
in the middle of the night,
go back to table welding
And then there is the nasty "tweaker arm" side effect.
Even with a jacket!
Damn chispas.
Funny how what constitutes a normal day changes from person to person.
Good times Pigpen good times...
Good to see it's still holding up.
Funny how they'll haul a boat out for paint but not for surgery.
Thanks for coming with me on that accidental journey down memory lane!
