About this deal

Note that the first question mark style hook template was created by drawing around my neighbour's existing one. I simply drew around it directly onto cardboard and sawed it with a steak knife(!) Just use what you have! I also noticed the side rail of our neighbour's narrowboat is tapered differently, so you can see they fit differently above. So I decided to make a bespoke boat fender holder for a better fit and personalise it to compliment our barge. Free Boat Fender Templates

The multi tool needs a steady hand to get started, then kind of chisel out to cut a perfect line, then hand saw the remaining excess. Sanding The Edges

For lines up to 3/8": The diameter of the pontoon buoy clips' eye is 0.45", which is suitable for lines up to 3/8". Make sure a tight knot at the end of the rope after the rope goes through the hole, which can avoid the rope from slipping. You'll need a wood that is strong under pressure, so avoid a softwood. For mine, I used an 18mm hardwood ply offcut from my DIY dog house project 2 years ago. How to Make Boat Fender Clips You can definitely use a jigsaw, but it's not ideal because it can jump about during small projects and the base plate gets in the way of the clamps. This means constantly having to move clamps, which takes thought and time. It also has a tendency to chip exterior plywood, meaning the need for filler. If this is your preferred method, I recommend alternating with a hand saw for straight edges. You'll also need to drill some holes to let the blade in. Coping Saw With a Hand Saw (favourite)

For a natural look, you can use a clear preserve (my favourite) or Danish oil as demonstrated here. But any filler you use would be best in the same colour as the wood, otherwise, I recommend painting it or staining in a dark colour overall. Before even painting and making them stainless fender holders, I drilled a hole using a 16mm flat wood drill bit. You could also use an auger drill bit for this. Applicable: Suitable for lines below 3/8 inches in size, and the height of the fender can be easily adjusted. A knot at the end of the rope after passing through the hole can prevent the fender line from slipping accidentally. And with me always being inundated with wooden offcuts in my workshop, it made sense to create some while reducing the use of plastic, too. Also, it's fun to be resourceful and learn new woodworking skills.

Stock Alert

Once set, which takes about half an hour, I then sand smooth and jumped to my next step of drilling a boat fender rope hole.

Instead, the shortcomings in the product may provide insight into its worth in real-time applications. Performance and Durability:

Before tying a boat fender rope knot, you'll need to treat it as we used wood. For cheapness, I wondered whether I could use hammerite for wood because I had it in my workshop and would match our narrowboat chimney. Alternatively, you could use a Vitrex profile gauge (below), or similar, which you can push against a protrusion and draw the shape onto cardboard and continue. (I didn't use mine as I'd left it at home!) Make Room For Expansion Material: The pontoon clips for bumper constructed from eximious ABS material are durable and will not scratch your boat rails. The surface of boat fender hangers are smooth and don't worry about scratching your sofa on your pontoon boat.Note, I have tried all of these, apart from a band saw or scroll saw as it's not in my workshop. Band saw / Scroll Saw In best boat fender clips, prior understanding of the product is always important. Other performance-related factors may be included in these findings. For this reason, we recommend that you evaluate the product's price to its value before making a decision. For the internal corners, a rotary multi tool is perfect for this as hand sanding can be a struggle and time consuming! Filling Any Chips For a more professional finish, then I would recommend a band saw or scroll saw as I know it's easier to cut small projects. However, for the power usage and storage needed, I think this would be more suited for businesses making fender boat hooks to sell. But, understandably, not many boaters will have this at hand!
