Metal Fabricators?

[gonefishie]

Are there any metal fabricators among us? A recessed trolling motor tray made from 1/8" aluminum shouldn't be too hard to make right?

Are you looking to have one made Gonefishie?
It appears that pan/tray is stamped and formed not fabricated...so it would be hard to fabricate exactly as shown and have it appear the same...if that is important.
If it is redesigned and fabricated out of sheet metal (8-10 Gauge in aluminum) it would benefit from a 'flat layout' which could then be ideally plasma cut, waterjet or laser cut then formed and welded.
However....it would just be cheaper to buy it I think.
My two bits.

it doesn't have to have a tapered front end and pretty. I figured it could be made for less then 130 bucks.

At $130 it's a deal compared to having one custom built.

Buy a SS roasting pan, can't get any cheaper than that. Thats all they really are anyway.
