I also OVER engineered some Titanium bars. Soft flexible Titanium outer shell limited in travel over a CWSR Titanium core.

Ti for the Win! Titanium that is.

So here's the skinny on the Aura bracket vs. the Ti bracket. The first 2 pics are the Aura and it's backing plate, the 3rd and 4th are the Ti and its plate

Used plastic as a guide cushion for hole saw for mounting

And these would never work. So , I fixed them.

Stainless nut plate so I don't have to get a wrench underneath to check bolt torque.

After polishing.

Enough of this fitting of the Bun motor. Time for some control. Handlepole control that is. When I sourced the titanium for the exhaust and cooling lines I also sourced some Ti plate that I used to make these. Titanium pole brackets and titanium backing plates.

Thanks! It was an epiphany moment coming up with the turf scheme. My other thoughts were running the waffle diagonally as mini diamonds or just using smooth.

Thanks! I'm looking forward to looking back at it.

The one positive about the way I mounted the Bun box, no Powerfactor mounts were harmed! So I know either setup will fit this hull.

And this saved the day for fitting the Bun exhaust. Instead of fighting the Bun coupler every time, 4" Sch 80 worked perfect for fitting.

Next problem was mounting the waterbox. Think of the PowerFactor exhaust as a U shape while the Bun is a V shape. I had to rotate the V upwards to get it to fit to my satisfaction. Which meant mounting the Bun box up.

So no problem , I'm good at making tank straps, (not by choice). I'll just use the Righetti! Nothing like swimming for shore, almost being there, and turning around to swim to the far side.

And of course no way was the H2O tank going to work

So up to this point it's going to be 62t based..... till I decided to make it hard on myself...and switch this for that

Let's see if we can stretch the last of that sheet...

...and I still have to make a hood pad ! Let's see if we can get it ! I get my 4 inch Hydroturf block out , and I find this. Hand ground it square with my 48"belt aluminum sanding plate.

Everything you see so far is from ONE sheet of waffle. I was getting scared so I bought another sheet, figured repairs should be easy to patch in, so it won't go to waste. This is all I had left of the first sheet...

Of course I clear epoxied the back
