backing plate

[eyedoctor]

anyone know where I can buy a backing plate for a 30degree atwood rod holder?

most people fashion their own with some sort of metal or wood

Use plywood and lay the rod holder against it to draw angle. Then use a hole saw 1/8" bigger then rod holder and drill hole at same angle as rod holder

I'd advise aluminum.  If you can work with wood, you can work with aluminum.

Agree with aluminum if you can find it.

Do a "Google" on Klein steel direct.  Retail store for their surplus.  Sryr, Roch, Buff.  They all carry aluminum in small pieces. (and just about any size)
