I sorta wonder if it does any good trying to take that rust of the chain, I'm certainly am NOT worried about the looks about deck or just on the chain, so with...
Brent, Sounds a good plan. I've heard it can get real ugly if you encourage a fat lady and get her slobbering.....and more. Just the thought perterbs. And a...

Which explains exactly what? The only thing I can agree with you on is Happy New Year as you still haven't displayed the/any integrity to answer even the most...
Brent, I distain New Year's Day too, such an arbitrary redundant point in time. Another political plot to brainwash the subservient morons amongst us. "Be cool...
Brent, You mention in your book an anchor well ventilator; a sectional drawing in the book shows a piece of 6 inch pipe going straight into the boat interior....
Brent, you did a series of posts on common screw ups, which I found most useful. One which hurt when reading was that some weld the decks to hull both...
Haidan , I had 200' of chain re-galvanised in NZ 22 yrs ago. It was economically reasonable there and then. The chain was not as rusty as the chain you got...
When they hot dip galvanize the first step is to dip it in hot caustic. That strips off all the organics, bi-fouling, oil and grease. Then they dip it hot...
Hey Gary I've talked to the galvanizing place down the street from me about galvanizing chain and they don't know how they would keep the links from sticking...
Doug, Things like chain are called wire work, because they tie the parts together with thick steel wire to dip them. The tanks are usually 6 to 8 feet deep. I...

... I've heard say that they use a thing called a 'spinner' when galvanising chain. But exactly what a spinner is and how it works, couldn't say. Colin...
... Is pulling posts off one site (without anyone's consent) and posting them elsewhere legitimate ? I agree that pinching stuff like this from a commercial...
Thats probably a big legal gray area there. Whatever happened to the guy that hosted a surchable arcives on his daughters PC ? That one worked slick and you...
Your concern is valid but there are several things to consider that has me leaning towards this being a positive. First is backing up is always a good thing....
Having lurked for several years I am getting closer to building a "brent boat" Trying to search prior messages is frustrating at best. If someone is trying to...

I weld a bar or a couple of 1/2 inch ss rods across the opening , with a half inch ss nut welded in the middle. A piece of ss reddi rod goes thru this nut with...
How much distortion did you get? You could possibly force some out by forcing an extra longitudinal in with a hydraulic jack on the end of a post, then welding...
A friend suggested an easy way to get rust off a chain, before galvanizing. Just tie it to your back bumper and drag it down a remote country gravel road....
