I'm Thai, I really like building your boats. I have a dream that I have a boat to use for fishing Thank you for the good clip my friend is learning. Thank you.

Great project! Do you need to paint the aluminium or will it be fine without any coating?

[@markstewart8563]

Awesome video

[@lloydmarshall]

HI there, please can you share how you secured the wood to the aluminum tub.

[@EM-hu2bj]

Hi there, It wasn’t on yet when I did the video, but the wood is held on by two aluminum clamp bands. They are basically a 19’4” length of 1”x1/8” flat bar with lugs made of 1/2” schedule 80 pipe, and a 5” piece of 3/8” stainless ready rod.

What is the thickness of the aluminum?

[@alex-xj4ov]

Please include me if you have time to discuss your plans for the heater. I’m very interested in your stove design. Thanks.

[@troutcreekman]

Could you tell me what grade and thickness of aluminum you used. Much appreciated ,Thank you! David

[@EM-hu2bj]

All 5052. 1/8” for the tub, and 3/16” for the stove 👍🏻

[@troutcreekman]

@@EM-hu2bj Much appreciated! Going to see if I can get a Fab shop here to make the tub. I already have an aluminum Snorkel stove. Mahalo, from The Big Island! David
