I don’t believe there was a specific amount of liquid / volume of foam ratio, if you order more foam than you need you could definitely do some test runs in a box or something? Otherwise it’s really just trial and error, it was in my case at least lol

Some other people dropped good tips in the comments I wish I followed, some said to put plywood on top of the cell so you don’t have to cut and it’ll stay a sealed cell that way as well instead of opening the cell when I cut it

@savagesenseoutdoors there is videos out there that show that working perfectly. Then the disaster of it not. From what I have gathered as the foam expands it hardens, bottom still liquid top slightly firm pressure from below the foam expanded too fast and lifted the deck. About 3 inches. That was a fiberglass boat..if your still with me. My boat is built like yours. Use scrap plywood that covers a few compartments and cut a 2 inch wide 2 foot long hole width wize. Then put oil or plastic wrap on the underneath side of the plywood so foam don't stick clamp inplace pour a few, lift and continue. Thoughts?

I’ve never tried it any other way brother so I can’t say for sure unfortunately how well any other way will work

@@savagesenseoutdoors I am nervous as you about this. Fingers crossed 🤞

Damn! That bit of gravel was not good either though.. I found another company who got me 20T for $360, much better deal and they brought me better rock too.

@@savagesenseoutdoors wow. I wish i could buy it in your area and ship it here..lol

@bigcartoonyIIV 😂😂

Thank you! So far so good😁

Thank you! I was SURPRISED how much my permits were, especially for an “unincorporated” town. I thought they’d be fairly cheap. I’ll need another permit even for when I’m ready for electricity because it’s not included with the building permit, unreal

The building was 17k itself and 12k for the pad. I’m planning to get electricity ran before winter but insulation and interior probably won’t come until next summer😁 The company that put up the building was American Steel Carports, 17k delivered and installed

@@savagesenseoutdoors Thanks for the information. Look forward to see your next videos on it. Does it get really hot in there with out the insulation atm? I know when I have a metal roof and no wood, it melts me heh. Can feel the heat just radiating down from the metal roof. Yours I think is taller though.

It can depend on your area too, shop around for quotes!

@@savagesenseoutdoors For sure. Thanks again for the video(and quick response)

Happy to help!

Excavation work, skid steer, and rented equipment was included in that price

@@savagesenseoutdoors A real contractor doesn't have to rent equipment.

Cool bro I’m not a real contractor😂

Awesome man! I think adding foam in the subfloor will help quite a bit, the aluminum won’t be so rattly and it’ll be more structural with expanding foam. I just got started on the front deck recently🤘🏻

Nice! Pretty close to my price but mine was 17k, 2’ shorter and 2’ shorter roll ups

No reason, I did pressure wash it out before we poured foam. But the boat was stored outside while I lived with my parents so it was difficult to keep clean

im trying to do ao 30x30 now in ma..dayummmm

@Sunbritepowerwashing concrete and the metal buildings can change quite a bit based on location judging by others comments, shop around!

@@Sunbritepowerwashing I bought mine from Best Choice Metal Structures. They have a local sales rep in Leominster MA.

I really need these marine foam , how to get?

Very interesting your explanation I think we might have a class to teach me

I’d assume so. I think your OEM bumper mounts the same as this one does

Thanks for the heads up, I think I left enough space on the underside to get to them. I’ll double check when I get working on it again though!

My friend runs the pump truck… not so unbelievable😁

Unfortunately not. It’s supposed to get Z-flashing that goes from under the siding and down into the notch, my concrete pad was barely too large for the Z flashing to fit, even though we followed instruction of their engineering department to the T. The builders opted to add an angled trim piece and silicone the perimeter instead

I was happy to hear they were going to silicone the perimeter for me though, that’s the next best thing behind Z flashing

@@savagesenseoutdoors Oh ok, that is actually one of the details that I am researching before I get my building.

@@ujeepit yeah I was a big disappointed I wouldn’t be getting the Z flashing. Whoever I talked to in their engineering dept steered me wrong for that one.

I was quoted 65k for a 1 stall addition to my residential garage stall. Sucks. I wish I lived rural and just put up a metal garage much cheaper. I currently have a "2 car" garage 1 large door that claime it's a 2 car.

The spot it’s going was at a pretty good slope, about a 2’ difference. The pump truck wasn’t needed, but my friend works for the company so he got that on site for a good price

@@savagesenseoutdoors it makes things easier for sure. I did two 18x30 slabs for my shop all by hand. luckily i got gravel for free, some rebar for free too. So i was mostly in it for the concrete cost. Great video.

Thanks man I appreciate it! Good to hear you were able to get some slabs poured for cheap👍🏻

Man not passing judgment but that doesn’t seem like much of a help from friends….. you got hit harddddd on the labor

Yes sir! I’m currently excavating for a 30x30’ on my property but the next step for the boat is framing the front deck!

It is a 1978 StarCraft, I have the title for it👍🏻

@@savagesenseoutdoors cool thank you hopefully that will help me when I try to get the title for mine

Do you have the little plaque anywhere? Should be some kind of number you can use to register it

It’s a small metal information plate, tells you how much weight and hp it’s rated for

@@savagesenseoutdoors I'll have to look it's still at my buddy's house waiting till we move into our new home 2 weeks to move it over there. But I'm really enjoying your videos on your boat going to help me when I get started on mine thank you for the info

I appreciate that! This Diablo carbide tipped wood blade did surprisingly well, pretty clean cuts. I’m in the process of building a garage now but I’m looking forward to getting the boat inside to work on it again!

looking forward to seeing it get completed!@@savagesenseoutdoors

Just wish I’ve gotten more done on it last summer, I do wish I brought the subfloor all the way to the nose though. That’d make it easier when I get to framing the front deck

@@savagesenseoutdoors ya I started my restoration last September, told the wife I’d be done by the new year … that was a lie lol I have a 21’ StarCraft holiday so it was a cuddy cabin time bow. I’ll frame all the way to front. Framing never really crossed my mind until I came across your videos. Do you wish you’d done wood floor vs aluminum? I’m leaning towards since I’ll be bolting seats down along w vinyl flooring

I’d only wish I did plywood for the cost savings and it’d be considerably easier I think. But I’m hoping that the weight and longevity of the aluminum makes it worth it in the long run

No, it’s next to the garage. I started this project before I bought a house and since then I’ve been prioritizing house projects

I hear ya, i hope you get around to it someday.good luck with everything.@@savagesenseoutdoors

@frankmangieri2077 thank you, I hope to gain some ground on it this spring. I’ve had all the aluminum and electrical for it, just lacking time to get it done

Two gallons, came in one kit. They mix 50/50

@@savagesenseoutdoors Thanks. Im redoing a 1972 Starcraft. I already have one kit. I was wondering If I needed two.👍

@JamesJones-cx5pk sweet! Hope it goes smooth!

I believe I only bought one kit and it was barely enough for what you saw, one gallon of foam and one gallon activator I think. They mix 50/50

They came in a kit on Amazon

I’m glad to hear some reassurance on it! I love the thing

I might still replace the top portion of the transom. House projects have taken priority over the boat

Thanks for the tip! I don’t think I knew that, I’ll double check it next time I use it. I’m also glad I spent the extra money for the glacier for the same reasons, no plow mount to get hung up on on the trails😉

@@savagesenseoutdoors you are welcome. Rather let ya know before you find out the hard way and tear something up. Happy Plowing

@VanLoweLawnCare definitely! Back at ya

Yes, I’ve been using it for the snow plow! I haven’t gotten a chance to use it on the trails though if that’s what you meant

@@savagesenseoutdoors yes, sir I meant for the trails and mud. I live in Louisiana it rarely snows here. Thanks for the response 👍

@@jknow7269 anytime! Hope it works well for you if it’s what you roll with🤘🏻

Awesome! I hope it goes well🤘🏻

I got the 60” steel blade

It would probably make the best igloos

How do I get an extra pin for the direction handle?

@@thomasw.gorman508 look up Polaris Glacier shear pin, is that what you’re looking for? I’ve heard people say they can be flipped around and be used one more time too.

@@thomasw.gorman508 fixmytoys.com also has a full hardware kit for this plow, part #2204826 you may be able to find it in there

Yes, it came with the kit!

Thanks brother! House projects have been getting in the way of the boat, but this next summer I’m really hoping to build a garage on my property so I can get it finished more comfortably!

I know man I’m slacking😬 been busy with house projects

👀

You’re late to the party. And who doesn’t like a free shirt?
