TX 18 Build
Re: TX 18 Build
It looks good. I am glad you are progressing on the boat. I remember how i was scratching my head with the kit problems at the start but it's working now.

That looks like my garage.
He cleaned it up, last time I visited him, there were chicken running around.

Re: TX 18 Build
Thanks guys. The garage needs help. My wife and kids continue to dump clutter in there. I can't wait to just dump most of the stuff but I need to work on the boat and not on decluttering the garage. I do miss those chickens though.....

Was wondering if this build still had a life! Go Derek!

Re: TX 18 Build
Congratulations on the flip!
Nice looking strong back, the rails are set up well. Almost looks like the thing was built by a cnc robot.
Flip pics, I'll leave space so Doc can narrate.

Re: TX 18 Build
Great news. The boat looks good.
I remember the problems with your kit: we got some Okume sheets that were not square. We don't cut parts that way anymore but we were scratching our head for a while.
It is going to go fast now.
