low profile deck line fittings, kid's seat

Just thought I would pass on that I have just completed a low profile wood fitting for perimeter deck fittings. It is made of laminated veneer and light glass cloth. It sticks up about 1/4" and can be made to blend in with the deck strips. Not sure if this is similar to anything that has been posted before. Will be gone a couple of days, but will post a picture and drawing when I get back. They are quite simple to make and install.

On another note, I am completing a mold for a kid/petite adult size seat. It is about 14" wide and has a low flexible back. Will post some info later in case anyone wants to try something similar. I will also be molding a similar adult sized seat. The molds were quite simple to make - yellow foam insulation board with a coat of glass.
