    My first time Kayaking and this Kayak held strong. kzread.infoUgkx4k5UrhC3v_Y4hIEaXLGvHcN5a5aBmZNB The water got pretty rough as a speed boat zipped by me, and the Kayak withstood it (I expected to be capsized). The Ores are very easy to put together, the pump worked beautifully. the seats are a bit hard to sit in after a while (I recommend sitting on the floor). after reading the reviews I was very scared it'd get a hole in it, the material is very strong and durable. The Air valve may need a small Phillips head screwdriver to adjust, other than that, it's well worth the money!(update)I've gone Kayaking in 3 Lakes and 2 rivers totaling about 40 miles. the kayak had two holes and they patched easily and no other problems can't wait for kayaking season this year!

    One slight suggestion is at 6:34 you cut the tail end of that bungee. Maybe drill another hole in hte top portion and snake it through that second hole and tie another knot. Now you have a bungee to secure things down in the top portion of that crate also...

    Great milk crate ideas, thanks, Fuzzy! One of the best things about milk crates is that they're made of HDPE plastic, and the piece you have left over from making your crate lid can be cut up, chopped up (with an old, thrift store blender,) melted with a heat gun, and formed into blocks or sheets you can use to make, well...whatever you want! You can saw, file, sand, drill, turn, or do anything with it that you can do to wood, and you can do it with regular woodworking tools! The possibilities are endless!

    Fuzzy Outdoors TV really? Cool! Glad I could turn you on to it, as I'm guessing you'll probably make some great future videos about it. Some have made forms from 2X4s, and others just use bread pans, cookie sheets, etc. They just use a 2X4, 1X6, or whatever fits best, along with a ratcheting woodworking clamp to compress the hot HDPE. It doesn't turn to liquid, just gets like putty, so you do need to press it down. Have fun, man!
