i was going to use a 12v car battery and a car window wiper motor.
i tried to join this boat club and when they see this they said no...i think maybe because its bigger than the others in the club

anyone els have any?

If you were going to build a toy boat that big why not build one you could row on a lake somewhere in the summer? lol

I have a project in mind, something for my pet rats, its a small tower say 5 ft tall 3ft wide made from wood and wire mesh fencing, once my money flow picks up a little lol, I'll start and post pics here.

Well here is the one that I started back in 1996 when I did not have a computer to paly on. I was working for a doctor who owned over 800 acers most of it was woods. He decided to have it loged out and many of the trees they cut down were will over 200 years old. Will because he told me to keep an eye on these loggers so they did not cut down the old growth trees they were over 350 in years. I found this peice of wood and after seeing something like this in a church around here I planed on making my own .
Well now it is over 14 years later I am sitll working on it . At first it went fast but as the wood dryed out it is getting harder to work with knifes . So after many cut fingers here is what was done so far.

If I listed all the unfinished projects I have AND included pictures, Dave would kick me off the site for taking up all his bandwidth lol. And those would just be the projects I have for the last 6 years that I've lived in THIS house..............

I put the PRO procrastination. The WORLD CHAMPION of starting stuff and not finishing it. Sometime this month though I will break my perfect record by actually completing something: my garage/shop. I turned a carport into a garage. the framing, outer sheating (foam board), and door are up along with half the insulation and beadboard. Saturday a buddy will be over to help me put the cement board on the outside. Then I only need to wire it, put the other half of the insulation, the cabinets, shelves, workbenches and sheetrock on..............

Nice carving Hop, Pete, just damn on that car. You certainly are Fiberglass king here.
