    Fear the beard!

    Never tried to grow a full beard when younger, it just wouldn't fill in. Thought I'd give it a shot again now that I'm 50, here's a couple months growth.

    What should I que this weekend?

    Thanks!! I'd appreciate any tips, I'll have to look into the brine idea as well. I love smoking turkey breasts then adding the meat to casserole recipes as it gives them a whole new flavor!

    Alumacraft 14 ft. Semi-V modification

    Alan, If you look in the pics I posted of my T14 remake the front pedestal is 13" and feels very comfortable. I don't know if the 2" lower height would make that big of a difference or not.

    Extending trolling motor wiring

    I'm with Bob B, I go to Harbor Freight or Walmart and buy their cheap jumper cables, usually about 10'-12' long for about $10-$15 and cut the ends off. You have a nice red and black pair of wires for not much money.

    Dustin's 14ft alumacraft conversion... lots of pictures!

    Dustin's 14ft alumacraft conversion... lots of pictures!

    Nice project! I've got a little more wiring to do on mine then it can go back in the water. I typically fish the inland lakes though and haven't ventured near the St. Louis River or Lake Superior!

    In line fuse for Minnesota kota

    I had done some previous searches on trolling motor fuses and found a few posts where people recommended the Bussman Short Stop Auto reset 50 amp fuses. They're only about $5 - $8 each depending on what type of reset you want. Here's a link to an example...

    carpeting custom plywood hatch doors...enough room?

    I used the cheaper indoor/outdoor carpet from Menards in my boat project and allowed 1/8" for each edge it was wrapped around. I didn't sand the edges real round because I didn't want the seams of the hatches to be that visible, I just softened the sharp 90 degree edge a little. It turned...

    Minn Kota parts question

    I've got a chance to get a Minn Kota 4WD AutoPilot 42 lb thrust bow mount trolling motor, but it doesn't come with a foot pedal or any wireless controls. The serial number starts with MKJG and I'm having troubles figuring out exactly what parts its missing. Any help appreciated.

    New Stereo Questions for the electricly inclined...

    I ran a Pioneer amp and four 6x9s in my '69 Buick and it would drain the battery in about three hours of listening time at a moderate listening level. Crank up the volume and you will drain things out quicker!
