[ATTACH type="full" alt="ImageUploadedByTapatalk1376452229.712405.jpg"]56061._xfImport[/ATTACH] Correct float pod mock up. [ATTACH type="full" alt="ImageUploadedByTapatalk1376452329.213031.jpg"]56062._xfImport[/ATTACH] Just have to cut out bottoms, and form my radius. I'll post pics of that process. On a side note, I used some $10 coupons I've earned at Ace Hardware since I started this project. Got a $43.90 dead blow hammer for $3.90!!!! Pieces left to cut. Used a pneumatic body saw to cut my pieces up. Very small kerf, so good cuts. LONG PROCESS. My forearms are sore!!!
