For a prototype this looks really good. As for ghetto engineering... I don't think so. I don't know what crush-nut zerts are, but the only thing I saw that really worried me was the exposed, unprotected bolt heads. Perhaps crush-nut zerts take care of that...

From what I've seen here, yeah, I could be really interested in this. Please keep us informed.

the skider is c-bord for flat head cap screws so thay will all be flush mounted. the crush-nut zerts are a nut that when tighten down the fist time thay lock in to the hole. so for a 5/18 18 bolt you would drill a 3/8 hole insert the nut zert and tighten with a bolt,the zert would lock in and you remove the bolt and you have a threaded hole i a pace of steel as thin as .05,its a neat way to hold stuff together,and vary strong. i hope that helps.
