PM sent - no worries
got the rope eye put on the test gaff....not quite the same as pictured....not the real tear drop rope eye??....I can try different on the next one, and the length has got a little longer by this ....the rope is a 5/8 and fits good and hangs true(centered on the shaft)....just running it by the ones that wanted a gaff....I will try and do the tear drop better on the next ones(if that is truly preferred), but doing it by hand and bending the main shaft, I kind of get what I get....
I can do a separate piece and just weld that on the shaft too(most likely be easier)....and can play more for the tear drop....just getting opinions to who wants them already....thanks and input is appreciated :3some: :yippee:
