Re: Allowed to make two sets of bumpers?

Regarding the 20 pounds per set, is it even possible to make 20 pounds of bumpers? Can we soak the wood in mineral oil or something to add weight?

It is possible to make 20lb bumpers. Both of out sets last year were 19.9 lbs each. We used 1/8" 1x2 aluminum angle for the construction.

Re: Allowed to make two sets of bumpers?

Highly recommend a single bumper with a cover for the opposite color. We also recommend quick disconnect attach for the bumber to allow maintenance to occur with as little disassemble reassemble time as possible.
