Found this in Baton Rouge. It was supposedly Custom built. Its been sitting in a barn for 15 years.
Was wondering if anyone recognized it. Who made it? There is no ID or other info at all.
Its...
Wonder why it hasn't sold in 2 months?
He offered to put it on a palate and ship it at cost.
750x2 is too far for me to drive.

May be possible to use an electric clutch also.

Might even be able to get by without the torque converter assembly (save $300+).
I could use a centrifugal clutch on the engine and a regular pulley.
Don't see why a go-cart chain and sprockets...
Its a 2 part question.
I saw a drone prop on ebay that's a tractor turning clockwise.
My question will it push turning counterclockwise or does it have to be engineered as a pusher not a tractor?...
Hi All
Happy holidays.
I have some questions about props.
Can a tractor prop which turns clockwise from the rear be use as a pusher turning counter clockwise from the rear?
I have an industrial...
I just called midwest. The technician said he would best some custom headers for the same price $20.
Heck the S&H was $15 :(
I know your right.
I'm gona chop the headers.
That wont cost anything.
I'll be glad when its running.
I'm tired of working on it and spending money on it.
All I have left to try it is build the...
The shaft on my kohler is 1"x2.5".
that leaves only 6" between head and prop.
I have a choice shaft extension or cut and reweld the headers.
I'd rather extend the shaft 5"-6".
Any one know of...
I'm gona use it instead of the 16hp.
I guess I'll put oil in it and see what happens when I start it.
Where can I get suggestions on throttle setup?
I bought a used KCP v-twin 20hp. The engine ran fine but had a very small oil leak behind the starter. The silicon between the cases had pushed out. I went to NAPA and got a tube of the best sealant...
Found a interesting engine on ebay.
I was wondering if anyone knows how much HP it can produce?
thanks

I think I am just going to make a pair of simple flat rudders out of 1/8" aluminum like papee's got.
Then I'll wrap them is a thin coat of woodland camo. I need a simpler boat more than complicated....
I'm trying to think up some way to build a simpler and lighter rudder.
Instead of just a flat piece of aluminum I thought that aluminum + Coroplast covered with a thin fiberglass finish might work...
I really like that hull. What is the length and width?
I dissected my old aluminum v-bottom boat for materials.
I found the runners on the bottom of the hull were riveted unlike most boats "pressed in".
Scrapped up a lot of building material. The hull...
Good point buster and it will be just as easy to put them up front.
That's exactly what I'm talking about.
Alignment is no problem. I'm presently searching the web for them.
Do you know a source for these clutches?
Thanks

I use poles .
WE generally use them when we get stuck on a stump in weed and what not.
Oars will work also. I'll probably just build a mechanical remote control for the very front that's connect to...
I am an inventor. Thinking bout having a heavy duty centrifugal clutch custom made so I can connect them inline 1,2 or3 motors front to back.
48hp is all I'd ever want.
My build is for fishing and...
There are a few reasons gigs aren't used here.
Only hand grabbing is allowed on the national refuges.
The limit is 25 frogs a night. That's 25-50 or 75 frogs a night with 3 people in the boat....
Good idea! mini spear gun Hawaiian Sling or mini crossbow with a laser are possibilities I'd really like to have an electric fan for trolling.
The places where I frog hunt seriously aren't water...
How do you catch frogs using an airboat?
We use jon boats with a outboard.
one person drives the boat in the back and one in front holds the light and grabs frogs.
We easily get the limit every...
This is an article I found on converting 2 jon boats to a airboat hull.

Are the ribs the runners on the bottom of a jon boat?
