Hi Mitch,
FWIW:
I remember calling Plasimeter about 18 years ago when different linings for U. S. made cast iron drums were being discussed on the other Model A AHOOGA Forum.
The guys at Plasimeter said they tried both bonded & woven linings & with just crude on-the-street-testing, & they found that woven linings worked a little bit better than bonded linings for stopping.
Then when I mentioned this to Mr. Mel Gros about 6 years ago, he said that too many of his customers complained that the woven linings would "squeal"; so he always recommended his bonded linings which would even last much longer than woven & never squeal.
I've found that wood boats, fiberglass boats, non-ferrous metal boats, & other boats can be all be used to successfully catch lots of fish if one is an experienced fisherman; appears life can be more peaceful to accept & respect neighbor fishermen as they are ........... rather than to try to change their minds on what boat to use.
Hope this helps Mr. Hammer with his brake decision.
