Fred-T BP--How to buy?

[mahjong]

Hi.

How/where would I go about purchasing a Fred-T BP and STA? Does he have a website?

I'm interested in a shorter (less than 14") heavy BP and a heavy STA. Does anyone know what Fred-T charges for a short, heavy BP?

Thanks.

The easiest approach is simply to send him a PM ... he's a member of this board ...

If Fred-T can't handle your B/P needs, give me a shot at it.

Anything is possible - keep in mind the laws of supply, demand and costs.

Just giving you a hard time. It was funny, though.. Fred has, I think, by far the most complete and thorough line of backplates I've ever seen.. and at reasonable prices. Are you into backplate manufacturing?

Ones and twos for a very select clientelle.
I have access to a metal cutting laser and CNC metal brake press here at work.
I "borrowed" the dimensions from a Zeagle B/P, wrote an Auto-Cad program and, voila . . .
Take them home and do the finishing work by hand.
Will even glass-bead etch a custom graphic for the prospective owner.

Steel? Alum? What kind of prices do you ask? Feel free to answerin PM.

Are you sending a royalty check, or should my lawyers send you a PM???

:D

Modified the bend angle and added some some improvements that makes it VASTLY superior to the Zeagle back plate. It even will incorporate the wing from my Zeagle "Tech" to allow me to dive doubles !! :crossbone


Maybe I could sell you my Auto-Cad file ?!?!?!?
I'll settle for $5000, that should just about take care of my dry suit, doubles set up and a few other little goodies. :eyebrow:
