Welding is the gateway to thousands of projects. Cars, boats, trailers, furniture, sculpture, etc. Yes you can spend a lifetime getting better at it but you and manage the vast majority of the common task with less than a day of practice. Only the truly incompetent welders will suggest otherwise. 🙂

A sincere thank you to all of you who signed up as Patrons. Just a dollar a month is enough and it’s making all the difference. Thank you for supporting the kind of endeavors you appreciate in the world. Check out these other great YouTube channels. It’s an eclectic mix of determination and you can support all of them by purchasing the Challenge Coin set. The profits for each challenge coin goes to that boat.

Have you ever been in the engine room of a WWII Submarine? Yeah, that’s what it’s going to look like. Stuffed to the gills with machinery, and tools and overhead trays full of cables and hoses. Ok, our lathe is CNC but it’s sort of the same thing. Many thanks to Tony Ozimek who build the frame and base for the generator donated by Tony Fleming, as well as Julian, Chris, Mike, Brian, and Bart. Seeker crew Rock! And so do our Patrons. We asked, and many have already answered. Please consider joining our Patron crew. Thank you –Doug

We make a steel mold for casting aluminum anodes with 5% zinc added. We are not happy with the zinc powder so we’ve ordered some zinc ingots and do this again while down in Lindale Texas at The Good of the Land Festival on November 17th. Get your tickets to the festival here: https://goo.gl/vNp1QC

   Back to the Lake. It’s so good to wrapping up a boat, even if it is only 16 feet long. Many thanks to Ryan, Jay, Chris and our Patrons.

Don and Sara are a great example of how an average father daughter find themselves building a 44 foot steel boat on the weekends, becoming not average at all. They have learned a lot about how to build a boat and love doing it.

We’ve taken our first step on Seeker’s hydraulic system. Many thanks to Tony Ozimek for his help. It’s always a pleasure to work with people with great attitudes about getting the job done. Seeker crew are awesome! –Doug

The engine room is filling up. The big and essential items went in first; Sea chest, fuel system, engine, transmission, exhaust, variable pitch control box, and the VMAC welder/gernerator/air compressor/hydraulic pump. Now the big important items are going in; secondary generator, CNC Mill/Lathe, and a CNC Table that can plasma cut, route, and 3D print. And there is more to come. Many thanks to Tony Ozimek and to Tony Fleming for donating the generator.
