thanks

I got it as a way to weld aluminum until I could get a good tig. I still haven’t bought a tig. lol. I like it and it’s certainly sufficient, but I would love to have a push pull mig. Just can’t justify it right now.

👍🏻thanks for watching.

Drop your email and I’ll send them.

Figured you would like that.

I’m fresh out of them. I had a few but it got to be such a pain. I wish I could get someone to put them in a cad file and I could just email them.

You will have that in the materials for sure. It’s an incredible feeling to build something yourself that rivals the best boat builders out there. You could probably buy a cookie cutter boat off the lot just as cheap but if you take the time, you can have something as nice as a prodigy for about 1/3 of the price. BUT with your name on it. I have another build video coming soon of one I just completed that’s an 1856 and I had around 130 hours in it.

Yep. Same one.

lol. I heard that. Without the divider I think a couple cots would be just right. Mosquito net and a fan and you’re in business. 😂

It was ok

Very much.

I think it was around 100 dollars but you could build several for just a little more. The mesh will come in a big roll that enough to do several, plenty of glue as well for multiple traps. It would be super cheap if you could just buy enough stuff to do one. I bought the ramp from my local scrap yard, you can find anything at the hardware store that will bend and has texture though. Maybe a piece of expanded metal or even wood that was screwed to some brackets that were bent to the right angle.

I bought 4 sheets and had a decent bit left over but I wanted to make sure I could keep all the lines going in the same direction and enough to cover cooler. I used the hydroturf. It still looks like day I put it in. Good stuff.

Thank you for always responding man! I just got done building my surface drive boat and you have been very helpful through the process! You are literally the ONLY person that has shown your build process of this type of boat online. I will be painting and rigging out over the next two weeks and I would like to send you some pics if that’s ok. If so, where should I send?

@@dirtmcguirt6118 shoot yeah. I would love to see them. Look me up on fb

Thanks. That’s awesome. I got most of my metal from pierce aluminum. They have a couple locations across the southeast.

Appreciate it.

Thank you!

Thanks for watching.

Nice. Get after it and make it happen. You can make em better than you can buy em. Good luck with the project.

@@JackArmstrong-jackdaddycustoms I 100% agree with you on that statement!

Appreciate it.

Thank you. I did not scuff the base. I did stay pretty close to the times on the labels. It doesn’t have to be exact but I would recommend staying close at least… humidity and temperature will affect it a good bit so I imagine those times are safe approximates. I let mine dry for around 24 before starting with the stencils.

Thanks so much!

Appreciate it!

Look me up on f b and message me there

Good luck with it!

be glad to. what is the e mail?

3/4

You certainly could but it may not it’s shape AS good. I used the wire to give it a little more rigidity to hold square.

thanks

joshuamwilliamson with the g to the mail

Be glad to. Might be tomorrow or Sunday though.

@@joshuamwilliamson you should have them.

He welds pretty decent on steel. Hasn’t done much with aluminum yet. 😂

Thanks!

Drop your email and I will send them. You can look me up on f b messenger too and message me there if you would rather.

I’m not planning on being in there to hide from intruders. Mainly a place that doubles as keeping my things safe while away from home and a place to get the family in should we have a tornado. So I think you could be comfortable for a few hours, but I never plan on us being in there for more than a few minutes for the storm to pass. The kids have had a few sleep overs in there when we were supposed to have bad weather overnight. Cots fit great.
