Sorry i didnt get a chance to post pics ill get them up.The bracket it made out of 1/4 6061 alumnium the uprights are Tig welded.I used a pinch bolt setup which works real well all the holes are drilled to bolt right onto the hull.I did have to move the hood hooks i moved them to the outside of the uprights that the pole bolts on.And i also used a holesaw to put a hole in for the breather tube and ended up using hose for like a swimming pool vac got it at home depot.I would like to get around 100$ Ill see if i cant get pics up

Thats beautiful!!! You wouldn't happen to have the dimensions or CAD drawing for that would you? I just might have a connection with a CNC mill.

Actually, I do have the CNC (solidworks) step file for this. It was made on a 4-axis machine. My buddy I sometimes ride with and his dad designed it. I just converted the Pro-Engineering drawing to SolidWorks and then created the CNC step file. A friend of mine that has access to a CNC made two of them for me. One for my buddy and one for me.

The drawback is it is a solid chunk, you need a minimum of a 4.5"X4.5" piece of aluminum...not real cheap.

I will ask my buddy if he minds if I give the step file out. We have kind of an agreement that we would not hand it out without asking the other.
