Oh lord yeah man, i'd reinforce the crap out of it. You're talking about hanging 350lbs out on the end of a crane. Lots of torsional force applied to the deck. Cause if the deck lets go, your crane could come down on the ski. Make unwanted holes. No bueno.
That looks better.
I concur with the comments about where it broke.
The weld should never come free from the base metal. It should break/ crack/ bend next to the weld because that metal has been heated and 'weakened' in comparison to the weld.
Good luck.
Never heard of a Epi-pen.... But glad you're alive!
So I'm on day 86 or 87 of my hiring process I think? Still not an employee.
BUT.... We came to an agreement on compensation today. Huge step. I think it's all down hill from here.
The owner of my current company is gonna crap 3 cinder...
Yeah I was in the Greenville area for my barrage of interviews. That's a really pretty part of the country. Southern hospitality etc etc.
Nice topography, smoky mountains, lots of history, trees, southern accents, southern food.......
This probably fits in this thread.
So... ya'll remember my whole job search thing? Well its been moving along at a pace that would be eclipsed by grass growing.... on the north pole.
I submitted my resume 11 weeks ago... I called and spoke to HR 2 days after I submitted it. Since then i've...
I think thats what I posted. If I get a pontoon I plan on either buying something like this or making it myself.
I was going to do it so I could put a ski on either side. You could have some sort of floatation on the end of these things so the back of the ski would kind of ride in the water?
Sorry about what happened. I know full well the struggle one feels concerning leaving bad feedback. Its your last resort. You try to be reasonable and find a compromise with someone. You have to pretty much give up all hope of the seller/ builder doing the right thing. It sucks to have to get to...
So I left my fuel jugs outside all winter got water in the gas (or so i'm told), ran the Chan at the Spring LSFR. Water in the gas = water in the carbs. I was full of quit that day so I just packed my stuff and came home.
Since then it's been flooding here I haven't been real motivated to dick...
Ya'll are the best. Kind of bitter sweet tearing this thing apart.
I've spent the last 4 hours re-reading this thread lol... What a ride man...
I'll entertain offers to buy the complete ski, but theres a 86% chance i'm just going to part it out.
Could be an exhaust leak. Start ski, air in bilge area allows it to run. Then you gun it and it fills the bilge with C02 and the engine dies but will start again later on.
I've been scowering the interwebs for reclaimed 1x6's to do this to a wall in our house. I may take the route you took. I'll probably distress the wood some. You'd be amazed the results you can get running a torch over the grain.
