The biggest downside that I can see is that every vacuum cleaner I've ever used the air comes out the exhaust pretty warm...
I've just sent him an email to this effect. Dab-off is a Wurth product so it won't be cheap I wouldn't have thought - but its certainly not a...
Apparently - this sounds like the stuff he is using http://media.wuerth.com/stmedia/shop/catalogpages/LANG_en/2109126.pdf Hopefully - am rapidly...
Can't weld it because the built in fuel tank already has fuel in it apparently.
Last email I got from the boat builder was that he was planning to lay the 2mm treadplate across the purlins with a bead of silicon (daboff) and...
Can't adjust the purlin spaces as they are already welded in (except for cutting every second one out and I don't think 400mm spacing would be...
I believe that it is 6061-T6 200mm spacings on 30 x 30 x 3mm box tube purlins in one direction, but effectively unsupported in the other...
That's outside the box thinking...
That's kind of what I'm thinking too Gonzo - in the materials forum you will see a new thread about 2mm tread plate - would appreciate your...
It will - but the ply it is replacing is 18mm so a big weight saving - about 300 lbs saved on the boat. Good thinking about trying a piece! Must...
Late to the party on this but seeing as you are in Europe check out the Nardi range of low pressure diving compressors - use those with a mask,...
I've got an aluminium workboat with 30 x 30 x 3mm aluminium box tube longitudinal purlins laid with 200mm centres. How much weight / force would...
Cheers Bajan, 3M products are very hit and miss in Australia, but I just took a look at the Sika Australia website and it seems that 291 is...
Indeed! Does anyone know of an adhesive or similar that we can use use to glue the fibreglass panels to the aluminium longitudinals? Would much...
OK PVC foam it is. CSM on the top would be good for walking grip as well I would think. We are going to save about 60kg by removing the existing...
Unfortunately towed weight and gross combined weight are limiting factors It wouldm, but having just bought a new truck I don't want to have to...
I only just bought the new one to suit what this boat was supposed to weigh :-(
If plan A doesn't work then we will be carefully looking at everything. There is certainly some metal overkill in the rails the tabs connecting...
Agreed - but in fairness I think that you are the first person who has answered what I asked in my opening post. Certainly not going to come by...
The boat builder did some sort of calculations before building and thought that it would weigh no more than 3000kg - but has missed that mark by...
