Hi, 👋, Timmy, wow I see that you started out building boat's at a young age . That's just a great job and very impressive 💯. I'm almost a senior citizen but should I ever consider building a boat, now I know where to look up the information from your DIY . Thank you, Mate 💯👍🙏🏻😇😎👍🇺🇸👋

Fabulous effort built a two 5 m sea kayak with students using similar materials and it turned out fantastic. Can't wait to see your finished product.

Fantastic! So generous to share the build with us. 👍👏🏻 congratulations on the presentation and the step by step guide. Everything is perfectly understandable and clear. You both make a great team, the sorcerer and the apprentice 😂 no arguing or any friction just good mates, a pleasure to watch. You struck gold with Jamie, brilliant 🍺🍺🍺

Wish I could build one of these to fish our lake and for the delta, would make it so much easier than having to drag the bass boat out during the week after work, you Aussies sure know how to build awesome water toys.

use a zipper bag to lay the thickened polyester or epoxy, fill the bag cut a corner off and pipe it into the corners (like decorating a cake), works a lot faster, the scraped off glue you can put back in the bag until all is used

Should have used Cabosil for the fillets Microspheres are not for structural fillets only fairing. Try a plastic spoon for spreading vs a pop stick.

[repalmore]

For putting in the fillets I think a frosting bag with a good size tip would be handy.

Just got home from arvo shift. Been stinging to watch this all day. FUCK YESS TIMMY.

Use expanding foam for a solid base, some waterproofness, and always floats.

[timpowell]

The guys tool bags are on backwards. Love it

[timmellor]

Get rid of the screws on the transom and replace with large diameter washers and stainless bolts to spread the load 👍

[dkruitz]

Those transom knees should have had strips of wood attached to them so when you screwed the transom the screws could bite into solid wood. You're basically screwing the transom into the end grain of the plywood on the knees which is not a strong connection. I hope it has fared well!

[reowhite]

Love that accent!
18 by 18 = ayedeen buy ayedeen

[robertchoate]

I would have inset the transom reinforcement twice the thickness of the transom boards the attach the transom to the bottom of boat

[jayfmiller]

Fillets: Micro balloons in epoxy are not structural. If you want fillets that add joint strength, use cotton flox in the epoxy to make a composite fillet. The flox is available through Wicks Aircraft and Motor Sports.

He’s good. All free handed and was spot on 👍🏻
