Inventors Anonymous

I'm a bit bored and I was wondering if there are any budding inventors out there who do it better than the professionals. Or, who like me, reckon they can, know they cant but give it a go anyway.

I get the piss taken out of me all the time for my prototypes but every now and then I'll come up with something the boys will accept.

I'm interested in anything to do with the outdoors. Fishing, camping, boating, 4wd.

Doesnt have to be mind blowing. My clip on pippie holders for the boat were so simple and I got so much crap hung on me when I made them but now the boys will punch on for one if there arent enough on the boat.

I'll just go take some pics

Pippie holder for when the whiting are going nuts and no one will pass you the communal pippie bucket.

Also pictured bottom right - one of the variable speed burley dispensor series. Bigger the drill bit used to drill the holes - faster the burley comes out of the bucket. Currently have three in the range.

esky with mods - knife holders - cutting board screwed in - and I got so much grief for the "whiting hole"

Whiting hole - if the whiting is too fat to fit down the hole its called a "lid opener"

stole the plans froma mag - under view. Theres rope and leaves in the bottom but you get the idea - can be left floating of the end of the jetty over night or longer and constantly flushed with new water

I know I've set the bar pretty high

. My attention to detail and the quality of finnish on all my stuff can be quite intimidating

But if you got something no matter how simple please post.

Thats had mods too - the beast was a hard top but is now a convertable.
