So, Earlier today I went to un-cover the '74 gen 2 ski to photo my perfect length 192" originally routed cables for another thread.
So, Just a little while ago, I went back down to cover it back up and noticed that something has ate my knob !!!    What would eat my knob like that ???    (see pics)








And the CC Global insert seems to be totally missing !

Keep it....from sinkin'

Aliens ate it. They have short fur can be 6 to 10 inches long not counting fur rudder. Hope they do not attack again. Looks like knob cannot stand another attack.

I would load it down with rat poison. The kind that look like green blocks. That way you can see if they are nibbled on. He runs out of wood he may change his appetite to vinyl
That would not be pretty..
Keep it as original as YOU want it

I think I just threw up in my mouth a little bit. Hard laughter and then seeing that last pic does it every time!

Dang !!!    Just look at those puppies !

And, I'm not too sure I can type good right now cause I'm still just a little bit freaked-out due to the un-known knob chewer.   I've done a thorough examination, I have found no droppings, no claw marks, no footprints, nothing.

Keep it....from sinkin'
