A WCF hull in hand is worth more than an X-Jet hull in the bush...:sneaky: :biggrin: :haha:

How's that for some "trash talk?" urr: :biggthumpup:

you going to build that thing.....or just talk about it? :biggrin:

 

[djkorn1]

Sweet. I like smack talk. I am glad we have a diverse group of boats again. I don't want to look at 6 Superjets with 6 X Metal Poles and 6 B-Pipes with 6 Girdled Heads and Six lowered hoods with Six Aftermarket Nose pieces...

That would be boring.....

Rat, you better have Project Rat II ready to go! :hail::hail:

Hopefully I won't need a crane to move it :tomato: JK :haha:

I am confident it will be done. I want it on the water for tuning in April. :biggthumpup:

Mine's just so heavy because of the aluminum exhaust tube! :biggrin: :cool2:

You shouldn't need a crane to move your X-jet---just toss the roll of fiberglass over one shoulder and pick up the resin with your free hand. :sneaky: :smile:

I could ask YOU the same thing. Do you even own a ski?!? :biggrin: urr:

Luckily the resin is preimpregnated into the cloth so I can carry the mandrel bent aluminum exhaust tube in the other hand :biggthumpup: :Banane09: :cool2: Now if you excuse me I am going to wash the grease off my hands from assembling the pump assembly :biggrin:

I'm going to bling the crap out of mine. If it's metal, it'll be shiny. I bought a metal polishing setup with about 8 buffing wheels and a ton of different compounds. Now I have to buy a few more compounds to buff out the sand-cast parts.
He who has the most bling wins right?
Actually, I am going to polish several parts, but it shouldn't be too over the top with bling everywhere. Anyone ever try to polish a stock rideplate?

I totally agree with that,it would be like going to Super Chevy Sunday and only Chevelles showing up.

Form and function is the theme of my boat. Bling is a distant third.

I don't think cast parts polish up well but I bet you could Jet-Hot coat it for a clean and functional appearence.

I can't wait to see your build. You have definately put alot of effort into designing something different from "the norm." :biggthumpup:

When you go out to get the ski how about pulling the weeds by the garage door they really bother me.

Thanks. That's quite blingy.....and cheaper than carbon fiber. I know that it's possible to polish sand cast parts, it just takes a long time. The compounds you have to use are more like a flexible grinding wheel than a polishing wheel. I've seen a couple of fully polished b-pipe manifolds and headpipes here on the X. I think I can duplicate that. I plan on doing all this when the hull is in for paint.

Thanks SFL we can always count on you to come and and poop all over anything that dosen't say super jet on the side of it,I knew it was coming I just wasn't sure when,thank God the wait is over ,now I can get some sleep tonight.You know whether it goes in vintage custom or budget build this ski still fits the description and is not nor was it ever intended to be in competition with the $20,000 am freestyle boats.

sorry. i was a little confused by the title of this thread that you started.

i think your 300sx build is going to tear the house down!!!urr:
