Re: Love, Necessity and Pride
Howdy,
Not much got accomplished due to Admiral car troubles, but I did get to spend some quality time this afternoon with a hot glue gun and some cardboard...
Trying to get some ideas on how to layout the rod locker...
First attempt, epic fail...but hey, that's the beauty of this method...only wasted some time, not much expense to speak of...
Cut out some new pieces...not quite there yet...
Finally starting to take shape...at least I have a working concept...
Some or most of the PVC guide tubes will be made longer to completely encase the rod tips and all of the ends will be capped off...the diameters may also change...
Some of the space left in this compartment will also lend itself to storing things like the nav/anchor lights, a spool holder for different spools of fishing line, possibly a good place to store the wash down hose and whatever else I can put in there that won't compete with the rods...
Another idea I have for the compartment Lid, is to have it swing towards the stern when open, to use as a combination table top for any of a number of uses, such as setting up tackle, cutting bait or cleaning/filleting fish, etc.etc...I'll see how that pans out...
With the time change, I hope to be able to get a little more done when I get home from work, so until the next update...
Have a great week, Y'all!
