I just picked up a pelican For free Thanks for giving me some ideas I like the milk crate the pole hole there's Definitely stealing that from you Thank you
Hey guys great job. Just want to give you a tip. If you ever have to glue down carpet again try using 3M adhesive spray. Spray both sides of your surface and when it makes contact roughly an hour later it's holding very strong.
Just a tip if you ever do a glue down carpet modification again...maybe try 3M spray adhesive.. I use that stuff on headliners and laminate and it's very strong
I owned a Bass Bantam which I purchased thinking of it as a disposable, that I might get a year out of it. The joke was on me, I had it for 10 yrs! Worked great for waters I couldn't launch my tracker on. First thing that failed was the alum. seat brackets/stanchions which developed cracks the first year which I had to make gussets for and have welded on. No problems after that though. I'm sure you realize by now that having your rods standing up in the center of the boat was a really bad idea?
That’s great to hear, they are great little boats and so far we’ve had no issues. And yes within our first time taking it out we realized that the rods in the middle was a bad idea 😂
Great job guys. I just brought home my new Quest Angler 10. I especially like the milk crate rod. I hope you don't mind I'm going to steal your idea and put that on my new boat. I look forward to some more video can you guys keep up the good work
Awesome! The milk crate works great especially with one person, but just be careful not to hit it or snag your rods if it is in the middle of two of you.
Great job gentleman. Seeing the "mistakes" you made, and planning for the next project is extremely admirable. Looking forward to your future builds. Tight lines!
Lmao!! The popsicle sticks they were cutting w a skill saw, only to realize what they were doing was dumb!!! We’ve all been there before a million times, good job boys, enjoy being young 🫡
FYI, @ the 4:20 mark. Always, always always keep that hand behind the direction of those knives. You were lucky that day. And 9 .9 times out of ten times, you'll be OK. But it only takes less than a moment on that .1 out of ten times and you'll pull that knife right over your hand or fingers. Work safely. You don't want to miss any opportunities to be outdoors because of a silly mistake. Good job on the build.
We actually ended up taking the carpet out, but other than that everything else is working great! It’s been a great little boat for pond hopping and even small lakes around the area.
Lol. Basically I just took the largest eagle claw panfish hook I could find at my local store and just bought the stickiest white bread I could find and pancaked it onto the hook to where it was about the size of a fifty cent piece.
