    I made the wake-shaper version this past weekend out of 1/2" HDPE, 2 gate hinges, 2 belt hinges, and a piece of telescoping aluminum. Works great and ran me $100 instead of $550.

    I don't know what happened, but it didn't sound or feel like I hit anything. Perhaps the torque released during the failure of the shaft bent it over, but as the picture shows, it's certainly bent.
