This Old Rickter

[mikesx]

Laid up 1 layer of 19.7 oz 6k.

Repurposed the mold for a clamp.

Quick and dirty. Patch done 2 nights after work. The only thing that went quick for me.

Quick question.....are the flexible breather tubes you are using stock RRP parts or did you find another option elsewhere...tks

great attention to detail...nice build so far

Kinda proud of this. I use cheapy Home Depot ubolts at work a lot, but I never use the backing plates which were hanging on my peg board. Mmmm....

 

[mikesx]

Always wanted this.

Bein a creek boat I didn't need foot hooks, but wanted the option so I made some foot hook delete plates and turfed em.

These are RRP breather tubes. Good quality, hard to beat, though I wish there was a cheaper option! Thanks!

Friggin aluminum! Stainless is the only way to go (you already knew that).I either build with carbon,stainless or PVC now.
Looking forward to the rest of your build!

Yeah Man! I'm sure you know all about it!

Pretty sure this is my old rickter from like 5 years ago. Someone was mean to it after me I guess.

I know. Cuttin up that hood man, who could do such a thing. Bpipe or lay down, are your only choices. The Horror, the horror.

Had a Blowsion hood latch on it, not really a logo or decal guy so I looked around and found my holy grail. Xscream Stainless Steel Hood latch. Ordered Mon.,had it Thurs., polished it Fri., didn't fit Sat. So out with the grinder, off with the arms on with the welder.

Had to lengthen 8mm, not 7, not 9, don't ask how I know.
