Our thanks to Mike at TulsaChain.com. We are ready to roll! …but there is still much other work to be completed. And thanks to Brandon Philips for slinging chain and showing how it’s done on his river boat.

We try out: JB Weld – Plastic Bonder, JB Weld – Plastic Weld, and Permatex Plastic Weld. The results are better than I expected. …but it ain’t welding. 🙂

Engine Room Sink

BetsySteel Boat

Thanks to Rory, Richard, and Paige for building the engine room sink. Don’t put off adding a welder to your collection of tools. If you have a skill saw and a jig saw and a grinder, then you have everything you need once you add a spool gun to your welder. Our Spool Gun Add-On Richard’s Welding Kits: WeldItYourselfKits.com

BetsySteel Boat

Many thanks to Rory Cunningham for all of the welding. We are now ready to haul the pilothouse to the Tulsa Port of Catoosa. Don’t get too excited, we are only ticking some of the big things off the list. There is much left to do. We still need to build out the pilothouse. –Doug
