I was just at West MArine and happened to see some "outrigger backing plates", ewwwwwwww, pretty shiny aluminum............$68.00 WHOA, are they kidding?

Good GAWD, my CNC mill could do those for nearly nuthin. Even better, I could do it out of my fav material, G10, garolite and it wouldnt cause corrosion.

What Y'all fishy people think? Do people really pay that much for a couple pieces of shiny aluminum with holes in em?

Would it actually pay to make these things out of G10? I figure that if my local West has em they must sell them to somebody.
