I just tried to epoxy some servo mounts, and it turns out that epoxy doesn't work too well on Tupperware :( So, where can I find Aeroplate or Corrosion X? Also, are these gas boaters just spraying the servo down with this stuff or what?

Just wanted to get your guy's opinion on something...My radio box was one of those old wood types that is pretty heavy and not exactly watertight. So, I decided that it needed replacing. But, instead of paying $20+ for a fiberglass box, I was thinking that a Tupperware container would be...

that sure is the truth...just when i thought my project boat was about finished some part breaks! you just gotta love this hobby!

no problem! i was just playing along with the wise cracks...but anyways thanks for all your help on my boating problems!

it's breaking off right at the starter pulley

I KNOW...been there done that (fuel tank, prop, radio box, engine placement, drive system)! so..what about my pull cord? :P

and as you can imagine, after it pulled out for like the 4th time i was rather pissed. so the whole subject is kind of a sensitive one for me :)

i guess you're implying that there is such a store where i live? but um...thats a good idea, i guess

oh, the engine that is having the pull starter problem is a 40cc giant with extreme compression

Right...like i'm trying to rip it out! there was plenty of rope in there so i wouldn't actually be "pulling it out." just for you information.

The cord in my pull starter keeps ripping out. I must have replaced it like 4 times in the last couple of months, any ideas on how i could fix this problem? I was using 70lb rope from Home Depot, but even that wasn't strong enough!

this is a picture of the engine

Just pulled the carb out... it is a walbro

the engine is an Echo that is about 15 years old (came out of a massive backpack blower). Everything on the engine is stock...so i'm looking to upgrade the carb and pipe. Right now it just has a long 3/4 piece of straight pipe (about 18 inches) on it.
