[QUOTE="bassboy1, post: 23835, member: 55"] Being that it is spring break, I finally managed to get something done. My original plan was to finish the trailer before starting the boat, but I am not allowed to use the welder on my own, and correlating dads schedule, with my schedule and the rain hasn't been practical, so I put the boat up near the shop, on a whole bunch of blocks, and started working on it. Today, I got all the pieces that go underneath the bottom level deck. [img]https://i193.photobucket.com/albums/z250/dmion/yazoomods009.jpg[/img] On the longer pieces, I used some of the 3/16 angle, cutting one side down to 1 inch, to hold it down. [img]https://i193.photobucket.com/albums/z250/dmion/yazoomods010.jpg[/img] At the stern, I only put them 4 across, as there will be a casting deck above it, so it will only support the fuel tanks and such. Also, I got tired of using the angle brackets, so I cut the ends at a 45, and then was able to rivet directly into the rib. [img]https://i193.photobucket.com/albums/z250/dmion/yazoomods011.jpg[/img] At the gussets, I just put 2 rivets in from the gussets to the square. [/QUOTE]
