[QUOTE="Wildman, post: 93570, member: 1739"] Yes the ribs were broke before I did the first modification to it. I did not brace anywhere just "patched" the ribs thinking they would hold. They didn't :D The console is moving to center from side. Reason is that I am getting the weight to center to help the flex all I can. I plan on tying the sole down to the 1 1/2 square tube runners that will go from back to front and be welded down to the ribs. Then my "seat" vertical panels will be tied into the framing of the rib supports, the side walls with corner braces, sole with corner braces and then tied into the deck and then of course I am going to glass all the angles (wood/wood) together with fiberglass mat. Is there a product resin that will bond aluminum and wood? I was thinking of trying that 3M 5200 [/QUOTE]
