    Are you not aware that the site you are on OFF SHORE ELECTRIC has a store that sells most everything you need for an electric boat.

    20 feet of flex shaft ? You planning on issues? " = inches, ' = feet.

    Pancho thanks Well aware sir thanks for the reminder. Looking for cable a bit heavier than what they sell in 20' kind of sucks if you ask me.

    All cool. I didn't realize OSE sold Flex in 20 foot rolls.That was why I thought it was a typo. :) Very cool on learning how to braze.

    LOL sorry no I've never tried my hand at brazing. I have a general idea how it's done. I do agree, you would need a jig to do it right.
