Well just back from a great morning with UNCLDUG. Rick and Matt - ripped the heart and sole out of the reef - she is all but done - the engine is sitting ALMOST on the deck, the fuel tanks out and the other big stuff is all laying in a big heap in front of the hull - great job boys
Now for the clean up - dont envy you beasty - more than one trailer load there old son. If you need a hand one night after work give me a yell.
The bulk of the work is done now - just the clean up and i reckon its looking the goods - the oxy got some great use and we opened her right up so its easy to move around.
Another 3 or 4 hours and she will good to go.
Great work boys

Re: good grief - another reef!
the final thrust - Im heading to our project on 11th and 12 of Sep to get it ship shape for scuttling. going to be welding heaps of structure on top, so for the artists out there here's your chance to get creative.
i'll have 1 oxy set, drop saw but we'll need a decent portable arc welder and a maybe a few 9inch grinders.

Re: good grief - another reef!
maate I've got an Ozito $100 jobber which is slightly better than a soldering iron. i do a tack weld then it wants to overheat and blow it's little fan for 10 minutes!! ok it's not that bad but it's pretty close.Shane Doevy wrote:Beasty

has yours got serious fire power?, we need to lay down some long and strong welds on varying metel thicknesses. my MIG is out on loan and is wired up for ali, so cant use dat one.
theirs 240v power there, just need long extention cords.
