Aluminum Fish/bait table

Well, it's been quite some time since I was asking question about tables and decided to finally finish the project before my dad goes out to the coast with the boat. Everything is made with 3/16 aluminum as that's all I had at the shop for scrap. I came up with a design based off of what I had to work with. Had the waterjet cut out the bottom and sides and then I cut out the back and the pipe for the bevy holders with the verticle band saw. It was nice welding aluminum again as it's been awhile. I then machined the 1" aluminum round down to snugly fit inside of a Scotty flush mount, cut it in half and put a 3 degree backwards slant to it. Welded it up then put done drain holes in. Came home from work today and, with hole saw in hand, drilled 2 - 1"3/8s holes. Mounted the flush mounts and boom, a working fish/bait table. I'll wait for my dad to get back from the coast and use his feedback on what else to add to it. IE: knife/scissors holder.

Nice job, very well done. Just hope those drain holes at the back don't get clogged up too fast while cleaning fish. Easy to fix if they do though.
