Re: Hammer's transom Rebuild
 

One of these times,
when you go up to Ephrata,
give me a call and we'll meet up for dinner on a Friday night or Saturday,

The CEO and I are always over in the lancaster direction,
her sister lives in Schafferstown, you should see her house,
but that is another story.

Re: Hammer's transom Rebuild
 

Shaffertown, is that where they use to make Schaffer beer. I remember my pop drinking that beer as a kid. ;D

Re: Hammer's transom Rebuild
 

No beer in S-town, it was brewed in New York and then they moved to Allentown.
The brewery is still along I-78 but is not in operation anymore.

Re: Hammer's transom Rebuild

Re: Hammer's transom Rebuild
 

Well How you doin 8)

Re: Hammer's transom Rebuild
 

Well, I did some more work on the V today. A bit more sanding and grinding. I layed in some more cloth up over teh width of teh transom, but had problems for the first time. The cloth was well wetted out, but it just wouldnt hold the form wrapping overtop of the transom. I finally cut some scrap pieces and that seemed to work. Looks like crap. Now have more sanding to do.
Also started pulling screws out and addind in some west system filler.
After that, the bugs started eating me alive. *:-/

Re: Hammer's transom Rebuild
 

baby steps!! Looks good from my house, besides a little sanding never hurt anyone.

Re: Hammer's transom Rebuild
 

I will finish it and give you $5 ;)

Re: Hammer's transom Rebuild
 

I've always heard it was near impossible to square off corners with glass mat. I guess you proved that :-/

Hold the phone and wait for some Skools Dual advice 8)

Re: Hammer's transom Rebuild
 

4" grinder will fix the problem along with some bondo I hope. Thought about using a thinner/lighter cloth, but didnt want to loose any strenght. Hope to have her cleaned up a bit more this week.

My buddy just pulled a motor today. Guy blew it up and went with a new E-Tec. The boat has 60 gallons of 50/1 fuel that needs pumped out. It's for free, so I might be pumping out fuel for teh next day or so. ;D

Re: Hammer's transom Rebuild
 

good progress man...your gettin it! 8)

Re: Hammer's transom Rebuild
 

just needed a old coffee can to roll on it to get smooth and don't add to much cloth to thick or you will make the transom to heavy.

Re: Hammer's transom Rebuild
 

Transon Heavy ?????
Went and looked at it today. She's solid as a rock. But have some sanding ahead of me.

Re: Hammer's transom Rebuild
 

hammer, with the west system, do you have to wash the "blush" off between layers?

Re: Hammer's transom Rebuild
 

Not sure Phats. I sand between coats and clean with acetone.

Re: Hammer's transom Rebuild
 

Hey HAMMER, I made a fuel pump out of a WEST bilge pump,
It works awesome and pumps 5 gallons of gas in less than a minute.
I'll be down Thursday night if you want to stop over and take a look.

Re: Hammer's transom Rebuild
 

Yo Parishht, do you actually remember how to get to Lewes ???, seems like your not around much in slower lower Delaware redneckville. ;D

Re: Hammer's transom Rebuild
