Thanks Shabby! Question...what do you use as the 10 yard and ball markers on your 308.

Good stuff! thmbsp$ thmbsp$

Post up some pics, hopefully this will inspire other to try making them. You will not believe how you got a long without them after you have them, especially playing Shootout rules!

Exciting!!!!

Actually I have a wooden ball marker that slides down one rail and a set of chains also on wood that slides down the other rail. Got 'em from Reginald. Reginald made them, very simple design, yet extremely effective and a breeze to use during game play. I don't think I have any pics readily available of these though.

Video of Boards in Use...
 
As requested...

Hey Shabby, here is the video of the Cowboys board with the sideline rails... I make them so that they will fit onto just about any board.

My new design that will work with my next generation boards will fold up and then out, like a tackle box... should be pretty cool.

Here is the video... sideline trays are on display starting at 23 seconds...

Hey, those look familiar!!!!


Man that is a super job, I am so stoked to see those, you ******** near got them exact down to the pencil marks!

This is great, I am glad you saw how easy they were. When you play with them trays, there ain't no going back!

I absolutely love those trays you made.

Here are my side trays stained and with green turf. They are still tacky to the touch so I'll give it a few days to dry before posting pics of them attached to my board.

Shabby J 06-21-2009 08:43 PM

Oh yeah! Looking good!

Nice stuff!
