Black box shows the original size of 2x4 cut/carved to fit.  Red line shows location where 2x4 was ripped to separate right and left knee hooks.  Blue sketch is overall shape of finished knee hook.

I really like these knee hooks, but I plan to cut off part of the inside to give me a new flat surface to glue an extension to.  They're just a tad too shallow--I need more "grab"!

 

I sawed off a flat spot on the bottom of my previous carved knee hooks to glue additional redwood blocks to.

I want the kind of deep hook and control I have with my old Perception Whitewater boat.  Note the generous use of Silver, Fiber-Reinforced Adhesive Strip.  ("Duct tape")

All outfitted...I even found some canvas-covered neoprene to go with the style of the wooden boat!!
Joe Greenley's King knee hooks are nicer. (See left photo)
