Are you wanting sit up on stool blind ideas as compared to layout blind ideas.? Personally I would build my sit on stool blind so I could enter/exit across bow with blind up. That requires a blind that allows about a foot separation at bow deck of your uprights running to blind wall, not the...

If I recall correctly Kobuk is the company that Cabelas waders were made by. Thier breathable's are the exact same as Kobuks current offering last time I checked.

Although I like the idea an appearance of an enclosed deck over ones lower half when laid out gunnin the bx needs to be built with enough height and deck crown for big booted feet so one doesn,t have to be uncomfortable with splayed out legs during hunt. I,m assuming with the way your design...

Whew! I haven't looked at their pricing in about 4 years. Their less than an hr. from me and at the time I was going to go down and try on a pair to get best fit but ended up buying a pair of Frog Togs on real good sale instead. This will be my 5th season with the Frog Togs and no leaks yet and...

Company name HighnDry on eastern Shore of Virginia is suppose to be making a tough breathable non insulated wader. Company is off shoot of commercial clam operators needing longer lasting waders for in water work from what i,ve seen. People who've bought them seem to like them. For breathable...

Custom dyeing rafia is the way to go . I've actually redyed some from JSterns when color I ordered wasn't up to my standards. This will probably be the first season I haven't dyed some for boat blind use. Big crab steamer is what I use over propane burner.

You can,t hardly break the stuff trying to. Rolling won,t hurt it.

Blind grass rolls as easily as a heavily rafia grassed blind does. I use a mix of rafia and blind grass on 2 different boat blinds that roll to each side and store along gunnels. No issues.

If your using artificial Blind Grass bundles is the way to go. Won,t be cheap but consider it will basically last forever . Rafia is alright but as mentioned it gets heavy when wet and needs to be dried out or mildew will cause it to basically rot away. Either can be threaded thru your grass...

I,ve made hoops/gentle curves in conduit for Dodger frames by bending 3/4" emt in a plywood jig. I thought there actually use to be a tutorial on here by someone. If it wasn,t here i,m sure I found it on line.

I've had my wife sew up at least 5 different boat blinds from cordura and nylon strapping for brush loops thru the years. She doesn't gripe to much till it comes to sewing on the grassing loops. Home machines require a good bit of patience and of course the right gauge sharp needle. And...

Nice rig. Love the weight if I had to drag very far

Whew ,I remember having to use one of those reel mower's that was dull as a butter knife once as a kid. I use to cut my grand mothers yd. as a child and at time our gas mower quit on me in midst of cutting. She had one of those and I tried to finish with it. That was before child abuse laws of...

Anthony, how much does the Dave Clark style weigh ? I'm assuming its all glass or am I wrong?

I would think plastic welding would be the way to fix. Maybe sections from an old white 5 gallon bucket for extra material if needed. Short of that JB Weld makes some 2 part epoxies that will hold up well to submersion. My main concern is where cracks located is a high stress area and without...

I would think that winching a boat out of mud will require more than your standard aluminum of fiberglass spud pole. While they,re great at stabilizing a boat I don,t believe they,ll take the pressure of a boat sucking muck bottom. Have you considered finding a piece of white cedar cypress 3"...

Thanks, I've never seen a water cooled motor that didn,t have a steady stream from tattle tale but then again I've never witnessed a duck twin running till video.

Seering video I assumed motor is air cooled because couldn't see a stream from tattle tale. Someone mentioned they were water cooled. Where does the tattle tail dump stream at?

A simple computer search lists the standard transom angle at 14 degrees and going as high as 30 degrees.

Never knew they were air cooled and not water cooled. Reminds me of the old 4hp Sears motor I started out with on a little 12' skiff. Maybe it was a bit latter but Evinrude also made a weedless Model outboard that was sought after.
