It is an interesting idea! I just tied a fishing reel to the electric boat, circle the dead boat and reel them both in...

If you type the above text in youtube the video will come up. I dont know Boat Retrieval Stl Thunderboaters Style how to post a link on here.

We used an electric boat for this on a 40 acre lake, worked like a champ. About half of our members had a variation of these. Boat Retrieval Stl Thunderboaters Style

I personally use Rhino 4 for my cad program, its relatively easy to learn and is a 3d program, and relatively inexpensive, I use Sprutcam 7 for the cam program, it was a bit difficult to learn but does a lot for the money and will do 4th axis as well. I make hobby type 3d parts and some...

Steve, I have the series III since Februrary 2012 Joe builds a very nice and fast rigger thats for sure!

I see Mikey already answered you, I have 2 1/2 of them, I wrecked one at LOTO shootout and am in the process of rebuilding it. The Tormach takes all my free time now so I dont get to the lake often anymore...

Nice looking boat Mikey!! Looks very familiar too ha..... I Have run Joes boats many miles, they are super quick and never lost a cowl, all of mine have the original cowls on them, says a lot for the closed in rear section. I use homemade motor mount washers, the rear ones have an oring groove...

Holten pond is sure nice for this boat Phil, you will need to watch it in the turns with the straight fin though, Let me know how it goes tomorrow. mike sr

I can reswedge that pipe if you need to go shorter, it sounded like it got to top rpm rather quickly. You will be talking Huntsville before long ha! Did you have any more coupler problems with the different fit on the header and pipe (noise and rotation). Maybe this is what we need to get the...

Congratulations Phil!! On your 101 102 103 runs with your Eagle, I dont think it has even blown off yet either. I just wish I had gotten in on the fun! Maybe next week I can get out there with you guys...

Most all of the runs I have checked with the gun and the gps, the readings will vary from dead on to about 2 to 3 tenths difference. Run to run mine vary about 2 to 5 tenths on the gps, I use it every run as its a gasser and there is room for it. The runs on the gasser were 87.9 and 88.3 the...

I remember these guys, I just found some pictures from the "Just add Wata" site on the East side of town. Indy was the club back in the day.......

Merry Christmas Mikey!! I havent been to the lake since about the first week of December, The interest falls off in the winter time, most of our guys that arent crazy stay home in rough weather ha!!

Double post, sorry..... Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year everyone!!

I have used both Mark, the pliers and the hammer and ball, both work well but I can feel how much I move the prop better with the crescent than the pliers when I only want a very small amount, maybe its just my imagination ha! I clicked "follow this topic" hopefully it will send an email when a...

I use a small crescent with the jaws polished and a piece of aluminum or leather against the prop face to keep from putting dings in it. The aluminum strip in the picture is a 5/8" wide strip of soda can bottom folded one time, works well.

I use a 6" x 1/2" 2sfn wheel by 3M, it doesnt polish but leaves a matte finish, good enough for me and it takes about 45 minutes to cup balance and polish a prop. I used these wheels to polish the tarnish off stainless welds, they work really quick on bronze, and dont leave any scratches in...

I do this to my collet ends of the flex, 45% high temp silver solder, it cured the slipping problem for me.The soft solder tends to compress over time and lets the collet loosen up.
