First time builder with a question

[SloHD]

Yea, you'll need some space between the end of the shaft and the tube tho for the collet. Have you looked at any pictures of boats? Or just have a look at some of the build threads here? They can give you alot of insight...

I'd like to pictures of builds but not sure how to find them

[SloHD]

Look at some of the threads in this forum. This section IS the "boat building" section...
