DIY River Anchor ( on the cheap )

[@bossman8303]

If you don't have a friend with a bench press you can bend those cross pieces by scoring them with a grinder on the line where you want to bend it. Then when you hit it with a hammer it comes over easy. Once bend you can weld on the line again to re enforce the bend. Just an idea. Love the anchor and I have a ton of scrap steel to make one. Never throw steel away. If you have to buy a piece your pence will drop when you see the retail prices. Nice vid , Thanks.

[@FishinNStuff]

I started to do that but . I thought the brake was more interesting , plus I was placing on building one

[@jasonhunt6427]

Those antique window sash weights would make a good start on an anchor. They already have a hole in them to attach the rope. Just take caution when welding whatever it is you're going to weld to the bottom of them because they are cast iron. perhaps maybe you'll get lucky and round some up in an old house they're tearing down. Good video bro.

[@FishinNStuff]

Thank you brother , this would make good anchors, if you filled a hole through the bottom and then made it come a part you would have to weld it . Plus you'd have a break down Anchor

[@TheMulletboy77]

Came across your video by accident, but watched it anyways. Some good info and tips in it. But I would strongly advise anyone and yourself use extreme caution tying a stuck anchor to a cleat and using the motor. You can capsize the boat if you're not careful, and that would be a bad thing. There's a episode of Real sports with Brian Gumbel where some NFL players went out and did the same thing, well 1 out of 3 or 4 of them is the only one who made it back to shore alive. Just thought I would let you and some viewers know about it.

[@FishinNStuff]

Thank you for your input brother , maybe I should have chosen my words better I didn't mean to give it full throttle I just meant to break the tie strap. In all realities it should break with a tug from your hand , but I do appreciate you pointing that out buddy and for watching too

Might have to make 1

[@FishinNStuff]

I'm getting ready to make one that requires no welding soon

[@showme....6043]

Man I love all your videos. I am working on some of them over the winter getting ready for spring. My question for you is where do you get the pattern for your name to be spray painted? Did you do it yourself or did you order it? Can't wait to see what we are making this year.

[@FishinNStuff]

I made it . Draw out what you want then cut it out on some clear stencil plastic . Or if you know some one that has a vinyl cutter even better .I just started putting decals on after this video lol
