Just remember the REAL right way to do it, if it's a deck mounted
lifeline stanchion, is to attach at the backing plate if they were
used
when the boat was built, and add a backing plate if they didn't
build
with one.
Short handrail/grabrail stanchions might have backing plates or not.
Deckmounted lifeline stanchions usually do, but even "quality"
Most people do. !/4" alum is plenty for most applications. Where will
you put the drill press? In your front room?
You're getting me mixed up with 'The Freak'.
I received it a few years ago and it sits on my work bench in the
basement.
Little man tosk keeps his drill press in the kitchen, next to the toaster.
You have to wonder if every meal prepared there is permeated with a greasy,
oily flavour.
