Locomotion Topic Author Offline First Mate Posts: 4995 Thank you received: 2471	New hammers in use, definitely an upgrade over what I was using. Dana said holding the weighted wood block to back up the aluminum was easier than bucking rivets!

This is by far the best hull I have started with but it still had a bunch of small dents that we spent a good while knocking out, I have the best help there is!

Ray I don't want you to do that.
I need to get up to par and find me 2001 3 cylinder Merc so you don't have to take up smoking. I hate for you to puff on on a cig and suck on Merc farts, boy that's not healthy...
