SO37 Splash Back or backsplash ;) galley

[markvb]

I am going wild on improving everything with Acrylic or Polycarbonate material. I am currently replacing the windows of our SO37 and also want to install a splash back plate made of Perspex (10mm). However Jeanneau parts are expensive so I want to make this myself. I made a design and want to machine cut it. So if anyone needs the same, or slightly different version, let me know! I can deliver you the DXF.







These are the clamps I have in mind. I am still in doubt if these are nice. Any tips are welcome!

May I suggest the material you decide to use for the backsplash have an anti-abrasive coating? Unprotected PMMA scratches. Also, I suggest you round the top of your brackets vs 90 degrees to prevent them from digging into the PMMA material.

Good suggestion. I will look into it!

The supports for the jeanneau backsplash are higher (15 cm). Once installed you will see that someone will use it as a handhold in an emergency so more support is perhaps better?

I used shower shelf brackets when making a splashback for my 36i. There is a photo of the bracket I used in this thread jeanneau.proboards.com/thread/2272/exploding-galley-splash-back-so35. Quite a few years down the track and it is still working perfectly.

Thanks you for the feedback. I decided to engineer the backsplash as sitara suggested. I changed the brackets to the ones sitara suggested and made an extrusion for the brackets so the panel will be flush.Also I made an opening for cleaning underneath

This is the end result!

Very nice job.

Aside from the color of the throw pillows, that could be my SO35.
