Necessary materials
In order to make a simple table design, you need to prepare some materials:
- Plywood or any other material you could find. If we are talking about plywood, its thickness should be about 1 cm.
- For fastening, use 30–45 mm self-tapping screws.
Tools that every home craftsman most likely has in his arsenal.
REFERENCE. To make the most convenient table for your boat, you can use ready-made drawings or create a drawing according to individual parameters. This can be an additional holder for spinning rods, cans, as well as stands for other fishing gear that the fisherman needs.
Simple DIY design
If you decide to make such a product for yourself, you will probably take the work seriously. Take a sheet of plywood 1 cm thick.
REFERENCE. If you have certain skills, you can assemble this structure in just 1 hour. Agree, it’s very fast, because the manufacturing process is extremely simple.
The manufacturing algorithm is as follows:
- You need to cut four parts from plywood. Transfer the dimensions from the drawing that you prepared in advance.
- Apply a circle with a radius of 19 cm to the workpiece, provided that the diameter of the cylinder is 38 cm.
- Cut out the part along the drawn outline. Attach it to the cylinder of your boat, make a kind of fitting.
- Make two parts that are identical to each other. Please note that a battery will be installed inside them in the future.
- Connect the two shelves together, as well as the battery. Use previously prepared fasteners.
- It is worth making recesses on top of the structure being manufactured. It's important to do this. So that in the future you will be able to hide all the wiring in them, and this is important at least for your comfort.
- Make recesses in the upper part of the product. Their purpose is to move the structure along the length of your boat.
- Make a hole in the center so you can attach the stand for the echo sounder.
- Install the structure you assembled yourself.
That's the whole fairly simple process of making a table yourself.
REFERENCE. It would be better to install such a structure closer to the seat; it will be more convenient to use.
