Gordon ,, that idea of the cut up cutting board ?? Pretty good. I wonder
what thickness the cutting board material is?

Probably 1/2" anyway,, right?

I will give them a call. The aluminum idea seems like a plan. Light,
easy to drill, will provide strength. If I can get the metal shop to cut
it to the right size ?? They should do that, I would think.

You can get brass in any junk yard. Cutting is easy, drilling is easy.
I know, it will not stand up to being submerged in sea water..... If
your stantion bases are that wet, you need more than new backup plates.

or go to WallyWorld and buy a plastic kitchen cutting board
cut and drill to size.
