  1. Glad you guys are liking this idea.

    @PTK demensions of that drawing at 32 inches long, as its 36 inches between the rear seat bulkhead to the base of the pedestal in a mid body. Width, that was drawn at 4 inches, that might need to be tweaked. In an ideal world, I would like to get sectional charts to fit width wise, I might need to get creative and put those forward slots at a 45 degree angle, and reserve the remaining little triangular area for a flashlights and pens.   Height varies along the length obviously.  That was drawn at 8 inches at its tallest, which may be on the tall side, but thats easy to change.

     

    No Pics as of yet. its just a cad drawing. Where is your manual gear extension? and I am planning on building them to clear Johnson Bars if equipt. fuel selectors if in the center of the floor, and not obstruct the down and locked indicator on the floor. 

     

    @Bob Austin That was drawn to clear the trim wheel on my F, where is the trim wheel on your J/missile?

  2. @rainman, its an adaptable concept. I would need to know the interior dimensions between your seats, pictures. location of trim control etc.

    this is for a mid body F, but if I can get data for  short bodies with and without manual gear. mid bodies: F manual gear, J, K 231 K252.

    And Long Bodies : Bravo, Ovation, Acclaim I can go from there.

     

    @Mooney65E I agree injection (or heat molded) plastic might be better in the long run.  I have access to equipment that can make approximate 24x24 inch vacuum molds. So it would have to be modular, which may not be bad in the long run. But if its worth easing your mind, I can make it with rounded, if not plastic corners to protect fromt sharp edges and round off any exposed aluminum. I prefer the aluminum just because its a superior material in terms of quality. Plus, what looks better? I think most would go for the anodized aluminum with laser embossed finishing.
