Getting dare console just needs roof welded on
Cut away sum of origmidij casting dick

Posted by: nimrod May 24 2015, 06:11 PM

Nice work as always, wish I had half your welding skills . I got another T I G and still having problems getting the settings right.
Just can't seem to master it.

Not me frank I'm prob an average welder the dual pulse mig machine i purchased when i built pop can make anyone look good

My prob these days is the eyes aren't as sharp as they wunce were & hands not as steady either when i'm tiging

What i haven't lost is ability to think sheet metal developement i see the job finished b4 i start

Biggest prob peep have when using tig on alloy is position of tungston
Unlike when welding s/s & tunston pretrudes out past shrout with alloy have it just inside
You dont want tungston ever touching metal rely on the HF

Sort of got back into it today with no Spud Muffin dropping land mines on my lawn i got a wee bit done
I truly still dont believe the smamosal whoever put this goat together created.
Very time consuming tracing all the plumbing i ended up welding it all shut & doing my own new system
Original plumbing was pathetic & quite easily the cause as to why goat went down.
Went shopping yesterday got all the electronics & a auto pilot kit

Posted by: Jumpus GooDarus Jun 3 2015, 03:21 PM

Posted by: Jumpus GooDarus Jun 7 2015, 10:21 PM

Managed to get a wee bit done 2day the day after yesterday
Console finally finished doors etc all fitted & removed
It's ready to get prep'd for paint

Posted by: Jumpus GooDarus Jul 19 2015, 01:08 PM

Nearly there everything is built & fitted up tis easy doing all the electricals with consol out of the goat

Was not happy with hight boat sat on trailer it would've meant i'd have to have ute in water to launch/retrieve got arsed about by idiot @ tire place when i ordered new rims/tires in the end told him to stick them up his arse i gained SFA not how he explained to me prior to ordering.

Longer draw arm was anutta option but i ended up sliding goat further back on trailer got thicker skids to compensate clearance prob have to sneak out this morn get alloy to remodify winch post etc

Posted by: nimrod Jul 19 2015, 05:10 PM

What size alloy do you need, ? chances are there may be some here you could have.

Posted by: Jumpus GooDarus Jul 19 2015, 06:44 PM

Went out & got them this morn frank
Went with 9 inch they lowered the rig 80 mm

Posted by: nimrod Jul 19 2015, 07:56 PM

With the boat sitting that far back on the trailer all the weight of the boat is going to be riding on the two rear tyres and
the trailer will pitch and sway even at low speeds.
Why not do away with the springs and get a couple of rubber inserted axles to lower the boat ?.
OH and your trailer lights will be too far forward from back of engine to lights

Posted by: Spudly Jul 20 2015, 12:23 AM

way to far over the back of the trailer! you need to keep the correct towball weight and that would put it way out, im sure you are pulling our legs!

Posted by: Jumpus GooDarus Jul 20 2015, 01:21 AM

God ewes are wallys
Only moved it back 450 mm & will be moving suspention back 450mm to compensate.

Is there anything else i can help ewes with ????????

Posted by: Fed Jul 20 2015, 04:24 PM

God ewe are a wally
Moving the suspension back 450mm will over compensate, you're forgetting the weight of the trailer frame.
Is there anything else i can help ewe with ????????

Posted by: Jumpus GooDarus Jul 20 2015, 04:38 PM

The goose has arrived
Tell me goose did ewe factor in that it's a dual boggy into your equation
Amazing how everyone is an expert but all ewes do is sit behind a computor pretending to be picking on the stupidest things

Posted by: Fed Jul 20 2015, 05:07 PM

You're done googleboy, off you go.

Posted by: Jumpus GooDarus Jul 26 2015, 01:32 AM

Didn't even read this properly cause the Goose had sum ting to gaggle about

To answer your !Q the answer is a big fat No

Huff bar torsion axles were the 1st ting i looked @

Looked @ it from every angle & they would've been a total waste of time & money unless major works were done to trailer & it would've been easier to have just built a new trailer.

As far as the lights go ???

I tink ewe should get a set & supa glue them as far back as possible from your nutty's
It'll put the squirrels off

On anutta note !

Geez the goat looks SpoofyLaCockaSon only got a days work left finishing the wiring & i'm done till motor
Goodarus timing hate going to the goat show this year i have a reason.

I want to see what's avail donkey wise I'd say yam again but wont rule out a black anchor

Wont have a honda they are a plic to work on & i'm not fond of mexicans choice Buzuki's

Greek navy uses them & have a look @ their economy all their dracula's were spent on repairs

Posted by: Jumpus GooDarus Aug 3 2015, 12:33 AM

Not much tu say except

Posted by: kkw Aug 3 2015, 01:48 AM

Posted by: SUMOFISHIN Aug 3 2015, 01:42 PM

Excellent Job again Jumpy! Could test it under the Manilla Bridge

Posted by: Fed Aug 3 2015, 02:43 PM

Posted by: Jumpus GooDarus Aug 5 2015, 04:35 PM

Parrot's like plastic
Squirrels go NUTS 4 nimrods
Crims do sneaky sneaky's
Wot do wombats do ??????

Took goat out for a run yesterday threw a few egi's in & ended up braining the squids
Goat screams only rev'd her out to 4000rpm & was pulling 24 knots was weird driving this thing not used to steering from so far aft & when looking 4ward it seemed like you were driving a 25 footer
Only hiccup was water did get into the hull, i'll have a look @ where wunce this rain stops

Overall the name says it all

Posted by: kkw Aug 24 2015, 03:36 PM
