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.
Jumpus GooDarus
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
Jumpus GooDarus
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
Jumpus GooDarus
What a waste of a week bloody lawyers they should be zot

Bit of luck i may have today to play with goat have got to this stage
nimrod
More photos, more photos, more photos, did you hear me I said MORE photos.
Jumpus GooDarus
It'll be a while frank
Had a shocker today only just got out of bed
Thank god for morphine pills

ps] I did a bulk buy when BIAS went into liquidation have stuff like switch panels, trailer leaf springs, hatches, compartment lockers just to name a few .
I'll take a few pics & post them in case anybody needs stuff like this
Jumpus GooDarus
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
Jumpus GooDarus
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
nimrod
What size alloy do you need, ? chances are there may be some here you could have.

Jumpus GooDarus
Went out & got them this morn frank
Went with 9 inch they lowered the rig 80 mm
nimrod
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 tongue.gif
Spudly
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!
Jumpus GooDarus
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 ???????? hysterical.gif
Fed
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 ???????? hysterical.gif
Jumpus GooDarus
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
Fed
You're done googleboy, off you go.

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 hysterical.gif hysterical.gif

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 hysterical.gif
Jumpus GooDarus

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
