Gimp's 37" Fighter Cat Daytona

[osprey21]

it is. Why?

No reason other than it looked familiar. Thanks.

I usually just take my angel grinder and slighly bevel the edges after I cut it. try to spin w/ the winds of the shaft.
I need to do a hatch pi or pins on it still. will get them done tonight.
id like it all to dry tomorrow, so Ill ship it thursday. I may need to get a box tomorrow too... the one it came in is decent but, I think Id rather put it another. ill double check it, see if it still fits w/ the strut bracket.

Thought you were gunna have some brilliant comment LOL. Bens got a nice offset for it avail now, so Chris (gimp, not Osprey lol) if you ever decide you want to try the offset, its a straight conversion, so nothing has to be modded and it can be put back.

I don't need to solder the end or anything? For some reason I thought you did, but I guess that's the prop end. Shipping Thursday should be ok, Priority still estimates Saturday arrival. I'll give you both addresses, if it can be there Saturday then send to my parents house, if they say Monday then use my normal address.

Don't think I'll even try it. Looks too bitchin with the in-line setup. Thanks for talking me into that!


Thanks for everything Scott. Looks like it turned out amazing!

[tiqueman]

Ive never soldered the motor end and have never had an issue. I have seen it done though and some premade shafts are that way.

Priority is going to be really expensive. But its up to you.

Yeah it came out nice. Im very happy w/ it. I hope you will be as well

I looked it up and it's about $30 for priority and $15 for the normal. I just figured on a 10lb box

[tiqueman]

I sent a MG out yesterday and it was 35 just for shipping for parcel post (cheapest method). When I looked it up at home before I went I also put 10lbs and it showed 22.00 parcel post and 60 priority. Box and materials to ship will be about $10.00. So what do you want to spend for shipping?

Sent a DF cat 37" out saturday, that was about $25.00 and had $300. insurance on it. And I had the box and packing from its original shipping to me. The Daytona wasnt packed that well. Two foan sleves that are 2" wide and some of those air bags. I wont ship it like that to you.

[tiqueman]

Or I can pack it as best I can and send it in the original box and save a few pennies. Whatever you want Ill do.

[Gimp]

That's really weird we get different shipping quotes.

I don't want to spend anymore than $45 total shipped. Let me know what you'd like to do.

[monojeff]

Keep in mind it's not just by weight which is probably why your price was different.
The size of the box makes it oversized so it has additional cost onto of quoted price by weight.

Decals are shipped your way.

Thanks for getting those out Jeff! The only other thing I'll need from you are the number's and a boat name, we talked about it in your thread a while back.

Yea I tried different LxWxH's with length's>40" and still don't get quotes that high. Oh well, not too worried about it.

[monojeff]

Ok I'll see about getting the numbers and name worked up soon as I can.
Working on getting caught up on things it's been a slow battle.
Be in touch.

I get the same thing you do Chris, but then you get to the PO to ship it and its a bit different? Even though online it shows the bulk package additional pricing etc. The MG I sent was 15lbs total (double boxed) and had a lot of insurance on it. Parcel post after everything was done was 35.41 just to ship, that didnt include the box nor the packing material. The total came to $50.00. I will get it boxed up and try to get to the PO today and get some prices. Obviously you wont have the ins. that the MG had. Like I mentioned before, I sent a DF cat out Parcel post w/ 300. insurance and it was $25.00. I will get some options for you and get back to you.

Awesome, thanks Scott

shipping sucks i shipped my gutted miss Vegas hull and the box was 11$, and they charged for the oversize so it cost me 35$ to ship plus the extra 11$ for the box and i only asked 150.00 shipped total, so i only got 100.00 for the boat with hardware and a cheap motor!!
