pricing seem OK to you for a permanent mount style? I think materials are way overkill for the application,but it should last forever. lol

Ron, another idea of something you could fabricate and probably make money on are sportbike stands. Let me know if you want to talk with me about this stuff. I have some ideas. I might be in Racine this week, I am picking up a cafe seat from Phoenix restorations and I believe that's by your shop.

If youre gonna make a wheel chock make one that is actually worth buying. I own one of these http://www.baxleycompanies.com/ and wouldnt waste money on anything else. But at $250 a crack not everyone has the extra cash for one even tho its the best thing you can buy

I guess that is what I am after,trying to make something that I can sell a bunch of. To make less than 10 of something makes it really hard to justify the setup and design time. It also sucks to sit on the money to SOMEDAY get it back. It seems as though there are more people willing to spend a small amount.
