sea cast vacuum assisted pouring #11

Pouring sea cast transom core material using a vacuum assisted method.
After watching resin infusion and vacuum bagging techniques I applied the method to sea cast pouring. It worked like a dream. Styrene vapors are combustable so I suggest you use a vacuum like the one a boiler tech would use, Ignition protected motor, or explosion proof. Vacuum infusion really is the way to go, I dont think you will see another video that makes seacast pouring look so easy and clean. The pourablity characteristic is the worst thing about it. Dont cut back the fiberglass content to get it to flow better. THANKS FOR WATCHING

Like to see video on vacume setup.
All I can see on video is pouring funnel.

Tape it off use a soot vac. Non explosive.
Styrene is explosive

[@TheLivebaitdrifter]

All done and stupid strong. Look at later videos.

[@rifflenut1484]

Do you think it should be used for the stringers?

[@TheLivebaitdrifter]

the transom is real strong and rock hard.

Como se llama el producto

[@TheLivebaitdrifter]

Seacast was 750$ another 600$ in glass resin gelcoat imron and misc materials.
Well worth the added exspense. Seacast transom has twice the tensile strength of a plywood core transom and will never rot.

[@TheLivebaitdrifter]

Yes. Carbon core also a good product.

@@TheLivebaitdrifter -CARBON CORE IS ACTUALLY ARJAY UNDER A DIFFERENT NAME . DROP TEST-200LB BROKE BOTH.

[@rifflenut1484]

how many gallons was used?

[@TheLivebaitdrifter]

13ish gallons

This method must be for people who don't have enough skills to replace a stern with coosa boards.

[@johnlape7385]

how much did this cost?

[@TheLivebaitdrifter]

There is a formula on website, its dead on. 13 gallons

This seems like a great idea! I am in need of replacing a transom and may use this method. Any tips?
