The orange epoxy is a nice touch. Did you make your own brass barbs for the water pick-ups? If so, how did you make the cone pieces? I ended up just soldering on a small section of brass tube one size larger to give the hose something to bite on.

No i didn't, but that's not a bad idea. Nor is the way you're doing them. That works too. I think i could cut my own tho, using the rotary table and like a 60° dremel burr, or something of that nature. I had purchased these from OSE. Quick and dirty! Thanks for the compliment. I dumped a lil createx in the g flex. Makes it a little stringy and a tad thicker too especially with micro fibers in it.
I'd love to share some of my recent progress, but for some reason every time i upload it says "upload failed". Any suggestions?
Alright! I'm back to posting pictures. A little more of my progress, and some more handy work on the mill.

Your machine work is gorgeous. What machine tools are you using? I'd love to have a small lathe/mill someday.
Cool KBB style small cat.

Nice. I always got pretty quick shipping direct from Revo.

20191105_200511_compress92.jpg I'm not the only one dreaming of finishing this thing. Sometimes he even helps!
Hay man if you don?t mind where did you get the outdrive made and your rudder
I machined the strut standoffs, rudder standoff, and rudder on my benchtop mill. There should be pictures of all this being made except the rudder, i forgot to snap some pictures of it. Struts are OSE 3/16" cut down and turned the bevel using my rotary table. Should be some pictures of this as well.
