About Cajun Shield Rubboards

Cajun Shield Rubboards are fabricated by Harvey Trahan and with the help of his amazing friends like Luke and Craig In their machine shop in Dripping Springs, TX  called C&C Sheet Metals.

The boards start off as a flat sheet of stainless steel. Then the corrugated crimps are applied. The shape is cut out. The shoulder straps are connected and attached. The boards are made of 22 gauge stainless steel. The shoulder straps are made of 20 gauge stainless. All boards have a 100% guarantee on any workmanship or defect.

Where the Name Came From

Brad Houser was the sax player in a band I was in called Zydeco Blanco. He was also the bass player for Edie Brickell and the New Bohemians. He passed away in 2023. He came to the last gig that I saw him play with us and said “Harvey, I had a dream that you should call your rubboards Cajun Shield Rubboards.” So there you have it.
