I will have to say that you built a super sweet boat. You have inspired me to build my own. I like the idea of building it the way you want it and have the opportunity to build it the way you want it. It there a certain place you got certain items for the boat, like the outside top railing and the decorative inside bump railing.

Thanks. That’s awesome. I got most of my metal from pierce aluminum. They have a couple locations across the southeast.

I’m pumped to see the finished product!

I love that you have your son out there with you. My only concern is his health. If I could suggest, if you have time, please read an MSDS on aluminum. I contracted leukemia from welding on these alloys. Wear a respirator when grinding and welding aluminum.

Man that’s a sharp looking hull. When you bought the hull with the sides already done, how did you order it prefabbed?

I didn’t make a video on it because there are a ton of them out there. It’s really no different than any of them. Maybe just a little beefier than some others.

1 inch for the strakes or whatever you want to call them. They can bend them into the hull if you want them to. I think I would get them to do that the next time if I did it again.

How much does sheet of aluminum costs

@JackArmstrong-jackdaddycustoms

Жыл бұрын

It all depends on what size and alloy you get. They come in all different thicknesses and lengths. 4x8 5x10 8x20 are common sizes with considerable price differences.

How much was the aluminum kit from pierce?

@JackArmstrong-jackdaddycustoms

5 ай бұрын

They don’t sell a kit. You just have to call and order what you need. The cost will vary depending on how much aluminum you order. To my knowledge you can’t just ask for a kit and they send you everything. BUT, frank at the Broussard location is a gem to work with and he can set you up with exactly what you need.
