Fish House Build #2


BunchOfish

Recommended Posts

Weekend update,  I managed to get the door installed and the plywood put on for the roof.  I had time to install the rubber but it was a little cool(54 degrees).  I would like to install it when its a bit warmer out so it relaxes a little better.  Hopefully the tin comes in later this week so I can get it installed this weekend.

I got all the wiring ran yesterday.  I can start insulating this week.  I will be using the 1.50" thick pink foam board.  The plan right now is to have everything wrapped up by November and I will deliver it when I go up north for firearms season(Nov 9th).

Must have had a storm?  Good thing that big branch didn't wipe out the project!  ?

No Actually I cut it down.  I had to so I could park my fish house in place of my boat this winter.  It was too low so it had to go.  Plus it was hanging out over my garage pretty far.  Its also a lot less leave I will have to deal with in a few weeks haha!

Build update!  Things were put on hold last week as I had to do some repairs to my truck.  I got all the wiring finished up yesterday and I started putting up the insulation.  The plan is to get it fully insulated this week so I can start putting up paneling and T&G.  I will have more pictures as I get a little further along.

I finished up the insulating last night.  Depending on the weather the next few days I might try and pick up the T&G and paneling.  I have a wedding on Saturday so a good part of my day will be used up and I might be hunting on Sunday(got a pretty nice buck hanging around). So far I'm sitting pretty good to have it done by November.

Things keep moving along.  I got a couple doors made for the cabinets and got the hole cut and hole covers installed.  I also finished filling nail holes with putty so a little sanding and it will be ready for some stain.

    • Yeah it was a beatdown
    • Your kid needs to stay with him!👍
    • My kid was eating in Beverly Hills and ran into this guy. Talked to him a bit and wished him luck in the game tonight.     
    • 🤔as a recovering machinist!🤣🤣that must make me a recovering welder!
    • As a recovering machinist, I can appreciate that.  If the spec is 0.001 - 0.0015, then clearly the correct measurement is 0.00125, duh…
    • I just figured that it is easy enough to just get a 3 bank so when the boat is not in use I can keep all 3 batteries charged. I have not bough a charger yet, maybe I will give it some more thought. Edit: After thinking this over, with the size, weight, and heat output of the charger (as well as the cost) I think it makes sense to just buy a 2 bank charger, I have a smaller charger i can use on the starting battery when the boat is sitting at home. Forgive me, for i am a retired engineer and I have to obsess over everything...
    • Congrats on the motor!  I think you’ll like it.   I can’t say much on the charger location but I’ve seen them under the lid in back compartments and under center rod lockers.  160 degrees is more than I expected to hear.   Curious why you’re opting for a 3 bank charger with a 24V trolling motor.  Unless you don’t feel you be running you big motor enough to keep that battery up as well?
    • I did buy an Minnkota Ulterra, thanks for the recommendations. I had a bunch of Cabela"s bucks saved up, which helped. Now i need to get an onboard battery charger. Where do you guys mount these things in your boat? The manufacturer I am looking at {Noco genius) says tht their 3-bank charger will run at 160 degrees, seems like a lot of heat in an enclosed compartment? Thanks for any input on this.
    • You're very lucky a troop of Sea Monkey's didn't carry you away.   
    • Wasn't terrible at a state park beach. Antelope island maybe.  I wouldn't recommend it as a beach destination tho.  Figured I was there, I'm getting in it.
