I am going to refer Quinc back to this thread when he says my 300SX -650SX bottom swap is too much work.

You also get to double the value of your ski

I guess it's on the way back to Atlanta now, who knows at this point . blades are going be worn out before I get them. Sep 28, 2023 4:17am DEPARTED USPS REGIONAL FACILITY SAINT PAUL, MN 55131 Sep 28, 2023 12:57am PROCESSED THROUGH USPS FACILITY SAINT PAUL, MN 55131 Sep 27, 2023 3:37pm ARRIVED...

If you are going to do any kind of glass -epoxy work there are a few things you will need , dixie cups for mixing small quantities of resin and filler, latex gloves, popsickle sticks and tongue depressors are at the top of my list , the last two are used for everything from mixing to applying, I...

Sorry you will have to excuse my ignorance , since I have tubbie molds I kinda live in a bubble, I haven't ever purchased a set or researched any of the newer versions , I googled tom21 sponson and on his post he clearly states they are just his sponsons with reliefs for screws , basically...

As much as it pains me to say it post it up on one of the Facebook 550 pages and someone will snap it up, it's about all Facebook is good for.

The other tubbie is now built and installed , all the details on that can be found here : https://www.x-h2o.com/threads/making-a-tubbie-start-to-finish.208494/

I cut the excess glue off and sanded it to get it clean which is necessary for the next step of applying epoxy- cabosil to the edge of the tubbie to seal it, realistically since I used Dow blue foam in it then it doesn't matter that much . I left some room on the bottom for fiberglassing ...

Also if you don't want to bother mixing up epoxy and filler for my money this is the best option out there right now and it fits in a standard caulking gun...

I went ahead and glued her on, I had already traced an outline when I had the tubbie positioned correctly and the hull was already down to 80 grit but I wanted more so I hit inside the pencil line with a grinder and flap disc. I drilled the first hole and screwed it down, then I went to the...

sure go ahead , I know when Charles told me about I had to try it for myself, I was putting in rear exhaust and a rear scupper so double trouble , mine is flat decked and I already know that was probably a mistake, too late now lol.

So I ordered new blades for the zero turn last week, WTF is wrong with the post office nowadays, tracking info below , and we wonder why the USA has no money and the post office loses money every year. BTW I live an hour away from Montgomery lol . Sep 27, 2023 2:36pm DEPARTED USPS REGIONAL...

Thickened epoxy is probably going to be your best option, I am glassing mine on so it doesn't really matter

I said about to , I am using Gorilla glue but for most here I am sure it's not the preferred option, Tom 21 will tell you epoxy thickened with cabosil, West Systems six 10 epoxy or other thickened epoxy , my point is epoxy does not stick to foam that well, are you sticking foam to SMC or...

Glue is dry so I used a large serrated kitchen knife to cut it off, in the past I have also used hand saws and hacksaw blades with a duct tape handle , whatever works. After I cut it off I sanded it, sanded with what you ask, simple the concrete patio makes an excellent foam sander, I follow...

You probably won't like the way I do it but look at my tubbie build thread, I am about to do the install on my 300SX.

I put tubbies on like Franks hot sauce, I put that poop on everything , haven't regretted putting them on anything so far.

Kawasakis fix for this other than the redesign on the cases and crankshaft was to use a thin coat of red loctite on the bearing during reassembly.

Watercraft factory still has them listed on his website , give Steve a call. http://www.watercraftfactory.net/products.php

Finishing up the tubbie foaming , if you want max expansion spray the surface , pour the Gorilla glue, then spray the glue, it acts pretty much like any two part polyurethane foam in that it does not like to be messed with or it doesn't expand properly. I usually give it an hour or so to cure...
