That looks great. Do you still have the Solidworks file?
Aluminum will not absorb water, whether you have carpet or not. De-populate the pedal board and take it to a lazer cutter and have them replicate it in aluminum with the correct perimeter, mounting holes and slots, and pedal cutouts. I defined the laser tool path in Solidworks and sent it to the shop to be cut and clear anodized. I used a 1/8 inch thick strip of solid rubber sheet (1 x 12 in., on left side and a smaller piece on the center hump. I mounted a new billet throttle stop base and new white Delrin stop screw. (for the moment, I forgot where I purchased it, but I will continue to look, and pass it on.) |
