But the deck fittings, >carrying toggles, and everything else needed to finish my kayaks If you don't want to order everything from Dagger, you could try building all your parts. -Toggles can be made from 3 inches of 3/4" PVC pipe and about 10" of 1/4" nylon cord. -You can make deck fittings from either plastic electrical cable clips, or small loops of webbing.
