Gene,

Just looked at your gallery.. Looks like you removed some wood in front of the radio box. Is that so you can move the water box :lol: further up???

 

[Slideblues]

Hey Mark,

Well I have been known to take out a piece of leading edge before....... :lol: :lol: :lol:

Nah, Must be tha camera angle, Havent changed a thing on the box or position so far.

Got the sponson layout done and been sidetracked with a Buds project cleaning out his shop.

Gener

 

[MarkScott]

Must have been the angle or my eyes need help..

Can't wait to hear how your's and the others run...

OB nut,

very informitive thread. i was looking at your foam cutter and was thinking of making one the size that you have because it would be more convenient to use than the large one that i have. what would recommend for power using .016 nich wire and 8" width.

thanks

chris

 

[MarkScott]

Chris, not certain what wire on mine, power is 500ma output. This is the not the original power source. Believe the original one was hotter. Others are using a train transformer which has variable power output. Mine is 8" and is a good starting point. If doing a lot of small parts, only really need to be a bit wider than the part being cut.

 

[Jerry Wyss]

Hey Mark, I have the "sealed surface" sanded down now and U could

cut steak with the sponson edge. I noticed great care was taken in

keeping the sponson edge "true",,thanks for that.

I found it easier to open up the "opening" for my existing rx box

rather than transfering everything into the box you provided.

Even though my existing Dumas cowl fit, I find the Dumas cowl

style a little "tired" these days. May have to do a "one-off" job

there,,not sure yet.

Overall, the new "29" looks "Heaps" better than the "30" that it replaced.

Having to deal with a new cowl design is gunna set me back a few though

Jerry

 

[MarkScott]

Jerry,

Glad you like the product. A TS2 cowl will fit on the 29" boat, just needs a bit of trimming to match the centersection top surface.

 

[Jerry Wyss]

Yeah? Well, Sheet Fire Son,,I always wanted one of dem cowls

I remember tryin' to get one back before them China boys even

got a boat sent over yet,,,and (i think JD's "cowl closet" was already empty by then,,,)

 

[Slideblues]

Yup, fit and overall finish is great on my hull too, Nice angles and sharp
