[Rhodes22-list] Rudder cheek plate

[Michael D. Weisner]

Matt,

If you make a pair, be sure that you specify that you need both sides and that they are mirror images with respect to the edge bevels.

Matt,

I would suggest buying some black UHMWPE and fabricating two new cheek plates yourself.
You could also try to find a plastics production shop to fabricate a set.
Try Norva plastics in Norfolk Virginia. If you send them the good one they may make you two new ones. They've done work for me in KingStarboard several years ago.
