I was at Multicraft today and they had some 1/2" thick 13" diameter PVC disks.
At $2/lb a pair would cost you $10. I picked up a few.
Spool speed (rpm) = 336 x Tow Speed (MPH) / Spool Diameter (inches)
PDX winch is looking good!

Chooch and I pulled a marathon winch building session tonight. Just got out of the garage. Hard to justify grinding metal at 1:30 in the morning. We kind of discovered its hard to wled perfect right angles on the floor of the garage after several beers. Nonetheless, it still looks respectable.
Winch is all welded up and we spooled the line up. Going to grind and paint tomorrow!!!!

Yep, it's in front of OMSI. It has a well rounded shape I believe

The shot of him hitting the sub in front of OMSI is in an old wakeboard video from in the late 90's. I think it was Spray.

You know, there are some spots on the Washougal that might be fun.

| Where Brian said is one. North of that where the Washougal goes under the Railroad might be a really good place when they're not fishing the spot... Can you carry this thing down a trail and stake it into position? Probably LOTS of places going up Washougal River Road...
