EPIC Duck Camp Lockers built in the House boat! (Duck Camp House Boat Build Ep. 9)

[@Sam-pf7dy]

Not trying to be a naysayer, I love the project. However that angle brace isn't doing anything. It cannot transfer the load like that, the bottom screws will fail due to the angular forces. If you don't believe me remove all the screws that attach the angle brace to the roof beam. Then hang your body weight on the angle brace. If it cant hold your body weight, it cant handle much snow load. Although not ideal it would be stronger if you just tied the two roof beams together. Hammering a 2x4 flat across the 2 roof beams would not only be much stronger but also give you more head room.

@@Sam-pf7dy boo! 😂 ok I’ll consider it

[@ADKMtnTracker]

I agree, im loving this project and also recommend revisiting that center beam support. Its going to save you alot of headaches down the river, literally 😂. Great work all around, looking forward to the finished product!

[@DuckGunChronicles]

@ADKMtnTracker haha ill probably do something different

[@OutdoorLimits]

well.. my day has been made!

[@DuckGunChronicles]

@@OutdoorLimits haha glad to hear it

[@mitchcomfort597]

That center beam gives me such anxiety haha....scabs on each side will help, I would make them as wide as possible. Perhaps further down the road a plated material could be used

[@DuckGunChronicles]

@@mitchcomfort597 haha thanks for the advice. I think we will do something like that soon

[@13hawks32claws]

Moving right along.

[@DuckGunChronicles]

Sure is! Won’t be long now just gotta keep busting it 💪

[@jeremiahjohnson7303]

Looking AMAZING and I always look forward to updates. My buddy and I just purchased an old paddle boat (from an amusement park) that we are going to fix up and use for duck hunting. Our first thing will be to strip it down, repair any holes (fiberglass) , lights and continue adjusting until we get it to our needs. Best of luck to you guys!!!

[@DuckGunChronicles]

Thanks! It sure is coming along! Haha that’s great. Off season projects are awesome and definitely help make it through the off season haha

[@toddgiornesto6884]

[@DuckGunChronicles]

@@toddgiornesto6884 just need to finish the seal and the paint 💪 we’ll get there!

[@HunterRoenfeldt]

[@DuckGunChronicles]

[@DuckGunChronicles]

[@davidpowell5710]

We just made peg boards to hang waders and gear in our duck camp, works great.

[@DuckGunChronicles]

@@davidpowell5710 heck ya that’s a good idea

[@shaynepilgrim6593]

Ain't no way I'd set foot on that death trap. Get a proper marine survey before you do anything else to that anchor.

[@DuckGunChronicles]

@@shaynepilgrim6593 😂😂 ok thanks for the advice
