Regarding pourable foam: You do need a channel for water to flow towards your drainplug. This does not exclude using foam, you just have to plan out for your channel. You can't see the channel in my boat but it is there under the foam. A v-hull is probably easier to do this to than a flat...

Also use tape and newspaper to mask off where you don't want paint. Just peel it off after a few hours before the stuff really sets.

Mix small batches and take your time, you'll be ok.

I don't know what kind of structure the largemouth like, but as an old eagle scout I'm happy to hear you're working on your eagle project.

I'm with flounder on the flexing. The big test will be running through some chop all day THEN filling it with water to check for leaks. This stuff is bondo with heat resistance for the powdercoating industry, might be good stuff but there are products meant for the task at hand in the same...

Google is your friend, this is one of many sites out there: https://cowichanbay.net/winchesterguns/serial94.html Past owners: If you bought it from a dealer and a background check was run on you and the gun, it's probably clean. If you bought at a show or private sale somewhere then I...

The foam came from aeromarine products / John Greer. https://www.jgreer.com/Foam%20Page.htm

Congrats on the deer. =D> I hope you parked at the bottom of the hill and hiked up so you had a downhill drag. Wrap the deer in a tarp or heavy canvas to avoid damage, or better yet build a little cart with bike wheels to leave in the truck if you need to haul one out. Savage has a...

I don't sell just buy so I can't answer your exact question. But what has happened is that lots of sellers have some pretty stiff shipping and handling fees which they use to cover ebay costs as well as shipping. I've bought quite a few things for $2 with a $10 shipping/handling fee. Doesn't...

I don't know where you are in the upstate but if you can get to seneca then behind firehouse subs on 123 near 28 there's a place that may have what you want, and can order in whatever you dream up. They'll sell small drops out of their scrap bin or cut to size if you don't need 20'.

Nice boat, in great shape for the years it has seen. The steering console is sweet.

Here's a couple pictures of the flotation foam going in. The manufacturer recomends plastic down first if you don't want foam sticking to everything. I was able to use a sheet of plastic draped over the framing to create a channel front to back for water to work its way out. I mixed small...

I really like it.

Plywood structural quality goes something like this: Exterior grade < interior grade < furniture grade < marine grade. This is a simplification and there are plenty of exceptions, where I get ply the warehouse carries something like close to 200 varieties. Another way of grading ply is by...

Loggerhead Mike, the bullet passed through him. What you see in the picture is the exit side, it was a heart/lung shot. I take it you're curious about a muzzleloader's take down ability. I took this deer with a .45 caliber pushed by 100grs of triple 7. A shot taken with most rifle calibers...
