Re: New Floor Tank Covers
 

I bought 3/4 for the floor as thats what needed for the weight that will be on them with all the walking and stuff.

The doors will most likely just need 1/4 to 1/2?? *which is cheaper!! $86 to $114. If you want they will cut it for you to size for extra 15%

But it is pretty easy to cut using your tools at home!! I cut mine with a skill saw and a jig saw. Just need to use a router on the edges and I will be all set.

Then I will start on the side walls when that is done.

But I had a small surgey this week that is going to keep me down for a week or so so it will have to wait *little longer.

I like to get all repairs and mod's done before i put the boat away for the winter!! This way I just uncover and go in the spring!!

labii I have been told that will be no need to put any non skid on it?? I will let you no if I slide on my a$$ :o though

Re: New Floor Tank Covers
 

The pain in the a$$ neighbor has never brought the router!! >:( Great guy but man he never comes thur wiith anything!!!

So Hmm,,,,,,,,, what am I to do??? Gee I wish there was some other guy that would lend me a router!!

If I only had a friend that would help, :-/ Well I guess I will get it done with some sand paper and a file :(

I just hope I don't over do it, with my surgy and all, :'(

Later guys! I hope?? maybe I will have to go to the doc. again after this??

Abbott and Costello, Laurel and Hardy, Macojoe and Chumbucket all great teams. Nice work guys! It looks great. Thanks for the before and after pictures. I looked at the national weather looks like Vermont and New Hampshire had snow. Will you get a chance to use the boat yet this season? Again nice job. Bill Mc ;D

Re: New Floor Tank Covers
 

No, thank you MJ. Really didn't take long since MJ had the pieces all cut to size. All I did was route the edges, and drill and route the finger holes. We spent more time BS'ing than actually working on it. Good day to get out for a drive though. The weather really hasn't been cooperating here lately. I think we're just watching it from day-to-day and we're just going to have to go on a spur of the moment. Can't wait for good weekened days this time of year here in the Northeast. Get out when ya can.
MJ has to get out the rake and clean all the leaves out of the boat before we go out.
Thanks again Bub.
