BTW - much better design!!

One suggestion, I think some type of top plate needs to be offered. I would imagine a lot of people will be upgrading from something else and most other indicators will leave a good size square hole in the dash. This is why I did a top plate on mine!

It's coming though!!

thanks!

i think its a much better design as well. it really works well especially for my application: single engine cat with no tabs.

i can offer a base plat that mounts 1, 2, 3, or 4 of these things for an additional fee.

id like to get some feedback from you guys about the overall design compared to the bug guys stuff. the only thing i ca see that makes theirs more desirable than mine would be the fact that mine dont light up from underneath.....but thats not a big deal imo.

im a big fan of simplicity, both in form and function, and also efficient use of space. the one i made for myself seems to give the user much more adaptability when installing in different boats/configurations.

2Ton. That looks very nice and much better than the nut/washer exposed on the first one.

Do the "Bug Guys" :) stuff light up? I've only seen anodized aluminum. I thought that was my original idea last year when I made my Trim Stix. I'm far from a big guy... or bug guy:)

lol! i stand corrected!

i believe it was your idea. for some reason i thought that the name brand ones did that as well! that is a good idea all the same!

thanks for the compliments "bug guy". lol i never look at the screen when i type. and yes i feel the second version is much more "sanitary" than the first.

making some great headway ,sure looks good :whistle:

next you'll be sending the drawings off to china and get 'em made for 10 cents on the dollar...lol. beutiful design and build. i think you may have found your second, or maybe new job...at least now you can afford to push harder on the throttles.

lol i wish!

im gonna have to work something out to be able to keep the prices down even though i am going to have to make each piece myself. the first and unit is $200, the second is 150, and each additional is 100 dollars.

CP - performance has the cheapest prices i have found on heads up indicators. stailess marine brand.

CP prices: +freight

single - 399 w/cable
double - 495 "
triple - 629 "
quad - 759
quintuple - 995

pricing for the second more refined version that i make: + shipping

single - 200
double - 350
triple - 450
quad - 550
quintuple - 650

plus cables @ around 30 dollars each.

2 ton when will these be avail for purchase ?

hi!

i am actually going to make them custom to order. they are available as of right now. each piece will b e made as it is ordered and then shipped out.

i would like for the buyer to allow 1 week lead time prior to shipping. it shouldnt take that long but i am running my own business already and this is just a side project to try and help some of my fellow boaters out while makin a lil change for the gas tank this summer. lol

anyone that is interested or just wants to call and talk about a possible or custom feature can call me anytime at 606 575 0208

Max sounds great any more pics of a completed set-up ? I believe Kevlar on the board was doing the same ..
