Appreciate the input. Thanks to those that offered to help. I'm looking forward to testing out a couple different shapes and weights to see what fits my needs. One thing I'm considering that hasn't been mentioned yet, is the stress placed on the gunnel and mount. In my garage, I was hanging some different weight on the riggers with the booms extended. There was sure alot of flexing occurring even with a stout backing plate. Any math fanatics care to guess the added amount of pressure on the mount with every pound of additional weight? Leverage sure is a fun tool.
