Stainless steel sockets
Does anyone know a supplier of these and similar fittings? Perhaps someone here fabricates fittings (cheap!!?)? They are the backrest fittings on the bench seat on my RIB. I need two and maybe four, together with some tube that will fit inside them. All to do with my budget RIB tent project.

Size of socket 150mm x 26mm outside dia. and 24mm inside dia (approx)

Might be worth giving www.lomond-covers.co.uk a shout - they're at Balloch and fabricate covers and stainless supports

Try Stainless Steve!

I saw some of his work at the Havant Boat Jumble at the weekend and it is superb!

He is based in Lymmington.

Thanks guys.

three rex - Tried the link to Lomond Covers but their site seems to have expired. I'll give them a call, I pass through Balloch every now and again.

JABS - Stainless Steve looks really good, very smooth. I've made a note.
