Building My Own Boonedox Style Kayak Landing Gear.

- Decided to build my own Boonedox Style kayak landing gear. Wanted to bring you along on my DIY project. The t wing bolts I used are just your everyday 5/16" toilet bowl bolts.
*update*
Due to the weight of the kayak, I added a cross brace between the two tees. This will help with the legs moving in and out

Love it simple inexpensive and it works. Beats the heck out of my overcomplicated idea using conduit.
I was thinking conduit too😂
Awesome job!!!
Phone video that will be used for UA-cam should always be shot in landscape mode. When you use vertical video you get black pillar bars on both sides.
Thank you for the advice. I will consider that in the future.
Love the idea brother, how is it holding up?
It did pretty good, I ended up adding a cross bar between the two attachment box tubes. Similar to the boonedox, it didn't handle a full loaded fishing kayak of the size I use, without moving it without all my stuff on it. This is because the weight is solely on the rail fasteners. I switched to the Wilderness Systems HD. I can fully load my kayak (over 200 lbs loaded) and it hands it like a Champ. I made a video on it, check it out.
Good idea on the landing gear. What you of welder are you using
It's my father in laws wire feed flux welder. As you can see I'm not up on my welding lol.
Watch a utube video on welding. A blind man could do a better job
