The thing with aluminum spool gun (mig-ish) is to sweep the welds, go fast along the seem for 3 inches, warms and clean the oxides, and then come back as fast and actually lay that 'bead' for half to one full inch, then repeat the same sweeping motion for miles if you can sustain it. It's tricky to 'master' but also, mistakes in aluminum are easily taken out with a circular saw and a steady, straight hand. Circular saws are what a grinder is in every workplace where long, continuous aluminum welds are to be performed in a modern production environment. I remember my first day on the job at ALMAC tanks and having NO IDEA about how a circular saw could even do anything worth anything with aluminum. Also, how impressed i was with the amount of beads a person can comfortably do in a shift with experience and good push-pull spool guns. It's certainly nothing easy to get good at but given a few days and having the drive to perform, the learning curve is exponentially positive once the hand and mindset are in sync with the material and process. Good job you guys, take care!
push pull guns and a pulse mig make it A LOT easier. A push pull gun setup is so much nicer to work with then a spoolgun. And then add a pulsemig and you can get that bead perfect without having to pull all kinds of tricks. I did some spoolgun welding with my normal mig. The trick for me was PREHEAT. Just grab a burner and get hat stuff preheated where you are going to start welding. Else the first part of the weld is going to be too cold, and then after a few inches your burning holes because you run too hot. And terminating the weld is also a thing i see a lot of people struggle with. I ran my setup in 2T mode, and ended with a few trigger taps to "crater fill". If you dont crater fill on something like this then that is where the boat is going to crack over time for sure.
Yeah I almost ordered the kit and something clicked and I asked what skill level welder do I need to be. The answer led me to buy a built one and put my own engine. It's a built turbo K20 and it screams
I did, i did! But... it applies easily to such 'uncritical' application but when it truly matters, a grinder has never saved ANY tragedies from happening do to bad welds.
My arms are hurting just watching the grinding with that angle grinder. That style is really good for smaller jobs but a "rat tail" style is far better at keeping the vibrations out of the arms. That is a crazy amount of welding. Nice job!
I'm commenting because I want the welding on the boat to be worth a bit more than just the montage we got in the video. I know it is boring, but man it sure is a huge part of the build. Just ask MakeItExtreme
One of the things I (as a non-welder) have learned watching some builds on YT is to get the panels tacked in place for nearly the full build and THEN finish the welds. Of course there WILL be places where that's nearly impossible to do LOL Another thing I've learned is, if there is an option to have it fully welded before delivery TAKE IT! There is a reason the manufacturer offers to do that for you and it isn't entirely a desire to take more of your money.
When I was a teenager my dad bought a boat building company. We built medium size personal watercraft from 14’-28’. The cost was approximately $1,000 per foot including power train and interior. The hull would take approximately three weeks to turn from a pile of flat .090 aluminum into a river and ocean taming beast. We would mig the majority of the boat but the transom and the penetrations for the pump were all tig welded. Aluminum is a special treat to weld properly, always keep a chunk of brass around to use as a backer to fill in the holes you blast through the plate lol.
No worried about a Fire Truck running out of water, since you're in a boat. The only worry is all the other angry boaters when you boil the lake away...
Are you aware of how many battery powered things there are for the water, efoils those thongs you dive with, waterproof phones? There's actually not an issue with lithium and water. Just electricity
i feel like i am back at Salem high school when you had Linda writing the weights down on the board haha and being in physics class talking about buoyance
I know this guy named Jessie, we found the back end of a sea-do boat floating in a lake with the jet engine intact……Jessie rigged that thing to an old row boat and out rigged it with some canoes to make a jet catamaran. I moved away before I could see it in action, never did hear from Jessie again. He was the coolest stoned inventor I ever knew. We called him Hi-Tek for a reason
I think you should take Leenda on the boat at all times. I mean when it starts on fire and starts to sink - she has flotation devices IN her already so . . .
If you do a lot of grinding or polishing, I highly suggest you get a pair of polisher gloves (detailing gloves) to help with vibration, you can damage your hands if you don't.
Meanwhile in Europe: If you have a light electric vehicle, that has 1000W motor, weights over 25kg/55lbs, it can go 25km/h max (15.5mph) you have to take an insurance for it. That's for most 2-wheel applications, water toys are not included yet, correct me if I'm wrong. If it goes faster than that, and cops sees it, then it'll be less fun, of course. That 2-wheeler is now considered as a moped or a motor cycle, and there will be more payments and stuff, like "driving a motor cycle without a helmet and proper insurance and proper drivers licence"... If you had a drivers licence for a car, they might take it from you for a month or so, just to punish you. We have separate licences for motor cycles, cars, heavy rigs, buses etc. Fun stuff.
I live in the US and it's the same as you describe for my resident state, NC. Used to be if you lost your license, you could ride a 50cc or less, scooter on the highway. As long as it your speed didn't exceed 30mph. Now, the requirements are, 50cc or under, has to be insured, registered, road legal, lighting etc. and can't exceed 25mph. Even electric bicycles aren't exempt, if they exceed 25mph.
Yea, it's starting to really go down here. In Estonia, it's everything you said, plus starting next year you have to have insurance for your ride on mower and many other stupid thing like that. If you use it on your own land, it's fine, but as soon as you ride it onto a public road you have to have insurance or you'll get a fine. As in, I live in the countryside and want the village road going past my yard to look nice, so I mow the sides of the road 100 meters to each direction from my house. But now I technically have to have it insured, because I cross the road with it. The road sees maybe 6 cars a day, if that. Utter stupidity.
This guy says he opted not to have the manufacturer weld the boat so he could save a few bucks....then immediately handed it off for someone else to weld...
on the pickup side of the jet boat turbine, weld some strips of aluminum that funnel the water into the turbine pickup slot, tho the angle of the turbulent funnel canards becomes its own problem as at speed the water will scoop better tho some will become turbulent flow as "steamed" water under the boat that "boils" because of the ratio of speed over the forward angle... 1" strip 20 inches long at a 45 degree angle creates 5 cubic inches of water scoop over the boat velocity, etc. creating a cfm ratio over speed against the known turbulent flow cavitation speed of the jet turbine... thus allowing higher prop speeds once moving, Boat NOS.
I’ve been in the middle of planning mine for the last year. Battery capacity/current is the issue. I’m was thinking of mine wanting 72v so what if i had a string of batteries in parallel and an equal amount of batteries in series. Would I technically get the capacity and power? Backup plan is to have a marine generator, capacitors, and a lighter battery bank. I want to see you do one of those… so i feel better about putting a foreign small diesel generator motor in it😂 like one of those long tail racing boats that are the size and thickness of a door with the diesel engine and turbo on it.
@@thomgizziz well, I didn’t start off by saying Inwas an electrical engineer and i haven’t made anything like that yet… Also… where’s your sense of adventure? So it would just draw down the capacity of the batteries in series first right? Which okay, thats what i thought it would do. I just can’t find a solution that is light enough for like a 3 hour trip in a mini jet boat. I want it to be electric so i can go places that gas/ diesel boats can’t go. Small enough to get over debris, not be a barge when in the water, be light enough to wriggle off debris, and small enough to wiggle through small areas. I was thinking the diesel hybrid since a loophole is that the diesel engine isn’t powering the motor, thats the generator and the electric motor would run off the batteries. Blah blah, i get it, they all flow together, but I don’t believe the law categorizes it in that way. At least this is what edison motors take is on the subject., albeit a canadian company. I got it! How about an aircraft apu… that can’t weight thaaaat much. Lol
I don't mean to be cocky but it will definitely sound like that to many people who don't have the aluminum experience i have. To me, IF the pieces were all fitting and properly cut as they were when i was working at ALMAC tanks (aluminum petrol/water/waterver tank/truck bodies), that is a couple days, maybe 4 all inclusive. First day of assembly is the hardest when you don't have any jigs, the thing has to be straight and make sense before any welding takes place... Then, assumign assembly and again, parts were properly cut to fit without trouble, a day of spool gun should be more than enough to weld everything. Third and fourth day could be combined together but they essentially consist of cleanup, not so much grinding - but that is highly subjective and depends on alot of experience and equipment used - and polishing. I can see an easy 5 days for a friend with good equipment and experience (and time, please)... BUT, hey, work is done and that's all that matters... i salute you for the achievement! Take care, thanks for sharing!

Add a dye or color to the water it would make locating leaks simpler and faster
