I hope not! But it sure would be cool if he did.

That was my guess too. Fisherman... just built a boat... yeah.

I may have accidentally ordered the Redcat Acent 18 Scout II.

I do live me a daamned Scout!! The II is killer, and I’d take one in a heartbeat even if I could see the street through my floor pan, but I’m definitely partial to the Traveler, with a Schoolbus 392cid shoved in between the fenders..

RC pontoon boat.

Ya nailed it bud.

 

[Tunedfrog]

The Bass boat was a shot in the dark and had no clue what I was doing.
The pontoon will have more thought into it and a better build.

Tired of dragging large RC planes from my shop in the basement to my car in the garage...this will allow some storage of the bigger jets in my garage, can't wait to get it!!

I made one of these out of pvc pipe. This looks really good though.

And it will have a nice place for mini furnace girl to lay out and tan... just be careful crafting that model of her, lest you be accused of fondling and get tuned up by Mrs Frog!

Only thing I bought today? A cup of coffee. Well, cappuccino at the bakery. Super good.

Ok, I’ve got one I can share…

A whole PILE of different colored M3 countersunk washers, and a pair of uber-swanky CNC’d billet aluminum servo horns.. I don’t know how to post pics though..

Edit: I purchased a digital protractor for $10.

Indeed sir! Likely not as nice as yours-just trying not to get caught slippin’!

Diggin’ that angle finder/protractor dealio.. I can’t count how many times I’ve needed one the last 6mos..

 

[WickedFog]

I just had to buy a new protractor a few weeks ago. Not quite at nice as my Starrett that I used to have, but perfect for what I need it for.

I have never seen the outboard setups until your bass boat. That is so cool man!

The outboard on the bassboat is nothing more than carved balsa.
I carved it, sanded to a nice smooth finish and then bondo it and sanded again before I painted it.
I wanted one of these motors for it but at the time I wasn't patient enough to wait on the funds.
It's all good though the bassboat was a learning process with a ton of trial and error.

Wow. I didn't even notice. But then again... master wood carver.
