I've been watching the boat restoration project with interest. You'll not go wrong with the Tohatsu - I've got the 20 hp and it has been very reliable and economic. No idea what make or model the boat is. Good luck with the project. 👏
If your boat was built after 1998 there should be a small plate or similar on the starboard side transom with the HIN number (Hull identification number)... am I teaching grandpa to suck eggs with this info?
@@BoggWeasel This is a much older hull… I’m guessing 1970’s from the shape, and not a single ID tag anywhere! I can see that there has been an oval shaped badge of some sort on the overhead canopy but it’s now long gone unfortunately! 👍
I had to subscribe. Good luck rebuilding the boat. Just to let you know my buddy and I have a bet as to how long till your wife gets mad enough to spank ya. Looking forward to more videos. Cant wait to see you get it on the water!
Shame no-one's come up with a custom stock for the HW100 BP(S&K). I hear the soft touch coating doesn't do too well with time. The beech wood under the coating although nice enough, isn't walnut, or laminate is it?
Beautifull ! got to love a humble crafts man .Im going to do a garbage Skip/dumpster on a small free trailer i want to get rid of the 40.00 a month pickup fee. principle the same .Thanks Dan.
The pipe increases the strength by a massive amount and prevents the box section from buckling. When tipping there is a lot of force on this hinge. If you don’t use the pipe, eventually the holes will wear.
Need scope monts to fit my Meteor mk4 where dod you purchase yours from ..They are such a pain to get hold of monts for mk4 and mk5 guns, keep up the good work .
Awesome build! I'm currently in the process of rebuilding a 96 Chevy 1ton. I also ran into the problem of the bed not tilting far enough with the design and hydraulic ram I'm working with. Looks like we are using very similar designs. You said in the video that you have the drawings/measurements for the 2 center pieces that will be doing all the lifting. Are those drawings still available? Thanks!
Hi Eric, unfortunately not as this was a couple of years ago. You can always move the arrangement towards the back of the vehicle to increase the tipping angle. I made up cardboard templates to fabricate framework around the ram first.
I've got one of these, same vintage, not been fired for 45+ years. I'm not very confident in my abilities, where could I take it to be restored and how much should I expect to pay?
Great work mate. Good to see people with precision and pride in their work. Very clean build. I am looking to build something similar, would have been easier for me if you were in Australia haha. Nice work.
Hi mate, is your hw100 standard length? I was looking at the bull pup stock and didn’t know if you had put the full length hw100 in the carbine bullpup stock? Thanks
