[QUOTE="idahoguy, post: 129550, member: 2564"] The cost so far has been about $150....for me. The paint I got from a buddy who used it on his boat and had left over so no cost there. Got some lumber from the cull bin at Home Depot, had some left over 2x3s and 2x4s, and a few simpson strong tie brackets laying around. I had to buy mostly hardware, screws, nuts bolts, carpet, glue and such. The carpet I used cost about 15 bucks for an 8x6 section from HD. I had to use 2 rolls. Funny you should ask about the outside of the boat... Sanded down the outside of the boat. This thing is a lot more dented then I knew, but the guy who had it before me did a pretty good job preping and painting it. [img]https://i71.photobucket.com/albums/i121/sether73/P1060662.jpg[/img] Wet paint on.... [img]https://i71.photobucket.com/albums/i121/sether73/P1060665.jpg[/img] Next morning some what dry. [img]https://i71.photobucket.com/albums/i121/sether73/P1060692.jpg[/img] With the Parkers, it is important to let it set for a couple of days. With most oil based paint, the longer it cures, the harder it becomes. Seth- [/QUOTE]
