Had'nt thought of that, perhaps I could put a strip of small box section steel along the bottom. Taking it to straddie for some fishing soon so we will see how it goes. Could not stand on it though....AnthonyP wrote:well done
looks pretty neat, but after awhile that choppin board may flex out of shape and need replacing (unless its a good one)
actually it may not as its not subject to direct sunlight or heat that often (not as often as one in a boat anyway) so you prob find it will last foreva.
maybe back it with some tread/diamond plate to stop abrasion too.grazza wrote:Had'nt thought of that, perhaps I could put a strip of small box section steel along the bottom.

The chopping board is very stiff, and is "anti-bacterial food grade" - bonus. Got it at Big-W. The catch is very strong, I would be very surprised if it comes loose. The only problem is getting fish scales/guts jammed up in it, or the ball bearing rusting. Have to coat it in lanolin spray.
I might look at changing the stays from wire to straping, like old seat belt stuff, and put a 5mm thick strip of aluminium along the bottom.
The chopping board was the biggest I could find (I only looked in one store!) but it could be a little bigger. If you could find somewhere to buy big panels of this stuff that would be better, but I bet a lot more expensive. I think this type of plastic would be better than wood, at least as the surface material.
Anyway the skies the limit - and it was $30!
