[QUOTE="awcarlisle01, post: 427470, member: 9964"] I was like you starting out not sure between aluminum and wood. I love modifying Jon boats so much I doing it a third time. My first build had aluminum and wood framing with spar protected. Let me say the aluminum was far more superior. I was bound and determined to find the answer on the easiest way to work with aluminum angle. The answer is get a good chop saw and rivet gun. Also do not use the small head rivets from Lowes or Home Depot. Order online large flange rivets. I promise you'll be really pleased with it and happy with yourself you learned a new skill. [/QUOTE]
