Its about 1 1/2 x 1 1/2 x 4' square stock.
Yeah I've used my circular saw  for soffit and facia metal and it does work fine and it is noisey.

No hurry. Its just a counter weight  for my snowmobile trailer.

Ross we could prob cut it with a Die grinder on Sat if that would work.  Or a thin blade in the angle grinder.

Plan is Breakfast at 4 seasons at 9 am then move the boat.  After that beers or whatever else. I should have a couple other people join us as well. Just trying to confirm that they can make it.

Anyone is welcome for breakfast or to just stop buy and check out the progress. Let me know if anyone needs my address.


Thanks in advance

Shawn
Can you text me or PM me your address. I was there once but I'll be coming from a different direction this time and your place is kinda hidden.
Thanks

Got Flake!!! Used up about a half pound so far. Thinking I will need to order some more to finish the top half.  Thanks for the help Jeff!

These 3 pics are the base color before flake.

I mixed the flake into an intercoat clear and sprayed it with the paint gun

Looks great! You shot the white and the orange and flake in the same day? Dries that fast huh? Fast enough to apply tape to it?

No white paint, just cleaned taped off put down the orange base coat (3 coats) then the clear with the flake mixed in approx 4coats.

It was a learning experience.

We could have shot it all in one day but we didnt start until about 6pm. We had to finish sanding, blow off, and wipe down the hull. Then we had to tape off the orange stripe and paint the orange then the flake. Tonight I will tape off the orange& flake so I can spray the white. After the white is done I will clear the whole hull.  Then tomorrow I will probably sand the hull smooth with 800 to get any defects or imperfections out.  After that it will be another 2 coats of clear and then its time to flip it over.

Also I posted in the MN events about Flipping the hull over Let me know who can help.
