Free stuff

[ryderp]

The following is free to anyone who wants to pick it up in Cleveland:
- A construction cradle on casters
- About 30 lbs of lead
- A stainless steel pot for melting lead

I also have the "beaver tail" bulb plug that Chad made, which I will ship to anyone in the US who wants it, providing that you agree to ship it on to the next builder who needs it.

Phil,
In a rush to get the bulb plug to you I did a lousy job on the mold .If plug is still available I would like to try again. Thanks,
Noemar

Sure, I'll send the the plug back. I still have your address.

Out of curiosity, are you casting bulb halves which you will then bolt together, or are you casting a single piece? I cast the whole thing at once, but I'm not sure which way is better.

PHIL,
I tried to do it in one piece.

If you want a hand I don't think I am all that far away. 4 hours? How is your boat comming along?

[noemar]

Thanks for the offer of help but now that summer is here things are slowing down. Will try and send some pictures next week.

I think that'll take you to the plug pic in the other thread.

Going, going . . .

I'm cleaning up after the majority of my build is done. Does anyone out there want my cradle with castors, some left-over lead (about 30 lbs), and a stainless steel pot for melting lead?

I'll probably keep the lead and melting pot around, but if I don't hear anything soon, I'm going to take apart the cradle and reuse the castors.

[ryderp]

Gone.

The lead and stainless steel melting pot is going to Chris in Texas, and the cradle has been cut up the castors reused. I was hoping that someone would start a new build, but at least some of the stuff is going to be usefull.

I was recently informed that a set of Tyvek patterns are available free. Only requirement is a valid hull number purchased from Watershed and maybe some shipping costs.
