    TS3 radio box mounting...suggestions?

    So I'm finishing up the box for my ts3, I was planning to use 3M double sided tape to hold it down, same tape I use to hold the rear sponsons on my rigger, is this a good idea? I know I'm a bit behind the times for new builds, but I'm looking forward to seeing this hull carving the lake! Thanks! Corey

    Does your box need to be removable? Exactly what 3M tape are you talking about? The foam mounting tape or the grey putty-like tape used to mount car emblems?

        If it must be removable, that's what I would use!

            Would you advise against removable? I would certainly epoxy it in if there were gains from it.
            Thanks again for your advice.

              Corey , Once upon a time I has two TS-2's where I could transfer the box between them. Might give this concept a thought :

              I've found that for many applications tape works well but after it gets wet (as it will in the TS-3) it loses it's gripping power.

                I like it! Thanks for the pictures....a thousand words!
                Perfect option for me since I over cut a bit aft, wood will fill it on nicely!
