VERY NICE! I also like the way you attached it straight to the motor, very clever.

 

[Tom Foley]

Martin,

Nice work! I like the front flange for mounting the coupler.

You may want to drill two holes in it and wrap a spring around

the motor. In really rough water the stinger may break off and the spring

will save you a lot of future work. I can suggest this from personal experience

with these pipes.

Let Us Know How It Works,

Internal stinger?

Great looking pipe. the pipe that Scott made for me broke the stinger off with the muffler hanging on it. had gussets welded on and still broke off.

Have internalized the stinger with some brass tubing. will test it and see how it runs real soon.

If you run it with out a muffle it may not break. Then again the large mufflers are heavy. one for that size stinger will be lighter.

If you ever quit your day job you could have a future in making pipes! Hopefully Mike or DW didn't help you to "Do the Math".

Very Nice!

 

[SayMikey]

nice let us know how she works

Sweet looking pipe Martin. Yeah Scott's pipes and the Blair program produce some phenomenal results.

I have one and one thing is for sure, you will pull props that you never would have even thought about before. Mine LOVES load. If you ever start leaning on the needle because you think it's too rich and then it leans out and dies, bring it back in and fatten her up and throw a bigger wheel at it. It'll clear out and run like a champ.
