PE boat headaches

[wagspe208]

I am taking a break from the white bitch tonight. Everything from v-drive back is finished. Pedals, steering brackets are clamped in place. Seat was to be picked up from the upholsters..of course he didn't make the pattern like he said he would. It will come home tomorrow pm. I will put some foam in a trash bag and put my ass in there if I can't get it done in time.
I am just aggervated. No rush, mind you...I am happy with everything so far. Just a lot of work done, and still more to do.
I guess I am just pissing and moaning.
Parts should be ready to be sent out and powder coated by the end of next week. I guess this is really getting close. Just doesn't seem like it.

PS..anyone want to buy a boat..almost done?

Suck it up Wags and finish the damn boat. We are not going to let you get out of it that easy. You can do it, We have faith in you.

Come on Wags, if I can put a boat on the water than any one-armed-monkey can do it. We just won't talk about how long it took me to do it though. The only real problem is I am having a hard time seeing the picture of the work to this point.

Thanks guys...I guess that is what I needed to hear. If I wasn't so insalely picky it would be ready to run.
I can go spectate at a race this weekend, or work on this piece all weekend. Haven't decided yet. The chic wants to go to the race. To me, watching a boat race is like watching other people have sex. It is fun for a while, but grows boring pretty quick. LOL
Paul...I am not smart enough to post pictures anymore. I have no idea what a photobucket is.
I will go to trailer wiring tonight. Just for a change of pace.

Well, just resize them to 600x600 max and upload them right from your puter, otherwise you need to host them somewhere and link to them, Imageshack is a real good one!...:D

[wagspe208]

well, getting closer..at least you can follow a link. Suggestions?

F it.
Pedals, mounted, bolted, etc. Steering, mounted, bolted, etc. Steering wheel in position. Can adjust a couple inches closer, or cut tube. Ends welded and in place. Tomorrow I will make the steering arm (on clamshell) and run the steering rod from the box to the clamshell arm. One steering rod brace and steering will be complete. (detail work, obviously)
I need to make a MSD box mount, battery box, rope deflector, then to powdercoat. (I think I am forgetting something). Oh, yea..lever for fuel shutoff and parachute release.
That's the update.
Kegerator ran out of beer. Dammit. Beer flows sometimes when boat work is finished. Now beer is finished. What the hell do I do now?

[wagspe208]

OK, Art..I have an image resized. 600 x 400 ish. What do I click on to get it from the my documents to a post?

[wagspe208]

[wagspe208]

Well, there we go. Now I will have to take some pictures.

Now here's a tip, before you post them open up the pic and copy the URL and do the IMG thing to post them full size!..
