Thread: 1060 from scratch

    I have thought of that but the blade will cause an issue and it will mess up my engine paint!

    lol It's not hard to tell I've never been on an airboat, I didn't even think of the prop wash.

    How do you fix your carp?

    I don't shoot or eat many (common) carp. They are too good of catfish bait to pass up. Pictured above is a buffalo. I use the rib cage as the rest of it is full of needle sized bones. Ribs are soaked in a salt/brown sugar brine overnight. Then patted dry and set out an hour or so till they have a glazed look to them. Then it's into my wood smoker till a fork can be twisted in the meat and it falls apart. Me and my 3 boys will fight over them!

    Tapatalk. It's my crummy wifi. It constantly drops me. I posted that during a rain storm on top of that.

    It rains every day now!!!!!

    But on the bright side we did a little redneck experiment last night. I pulled the top of the carb and pushed the needle valve up to the closed position. My oldest boy the pumped the primer bulb and Gas leaked from around the aluminum washer. So I got that fixed and hopefully she is good to go now. Flooding will cause many of the symptoms that I was having. We shall see.

    Got a little done in between rain storms today. most of my light rails are welded up. I have to tell on myself. I built a bottom rail with uprights on it first.

    The second half should have been the exact opposite but ended up being the exact same!!! I had to weld the uprights on the crier side then cut the wrong ones off and grind smooth. Nothing like doing things the hard way.

    I don't know how autocorrect got "crier" out of "other". Guess it had something to do with me crying in the yard maybe.....

    Anyway here is how she sits now.

    Looks Great froghunter. What did you decide to use for lights on your rail? Also, I really like your idea of the sea-container for parking bay with the poly strips on the floor!

    Lots of slack, looks bad and makes me angry.

    My neighbor gave me those two poly strips. They sure work good. It's a great secure place to keep my rig. Loading it up is easy but getting it back in there is a PAIN!!!!
