It looks like you did a good job! I'm very new to the concept of Poor Man's Fiberglass. However....the best part of the video, for me, was seeing the involvement of your assistants. Too cool man!!!

Pre wetting your sheet in very thin pva/water in a bucket. Helps stretch fabric round compound curves.

Just discovered your videos today and I am fascinated! You make me want to build one myself. I already have a trolling motor, so it is just a matter of figuring out what design to build. Keep posting the videos, man-they are great!

THANK YOU SO MUCH! my friends and i are building a boat together and being high schoolers we are broke and this video is a life saver!!

Well done the kids are a blast, and I think you should make that boat for them with a weed whacker motor on it.

Cute little captain you have aboard mate! You are a team! Bob Belgium, thx brther

Your assistant killed it

With all of those assistants, you should be making way more boats,LOL. Great video and loved your assistants. The cloth smoothed out more than I imagined it would-looks great.

Nice job, blokes. Light, cheap, tidy with an easy water cleanup. Another outstanding video.

Youre helper is right with you( he patterns his though after you) My son.. 27? Doing his thing Precious moments for sure

The Corona joke was the best part 🤣

That kid's so cool.

Tumblehome is what its called.great boats

I've always enjoyed your videos, make me want to build a boat also, keep up your great videos

Excellent ! I used cloth on the front seam of my build and it takes a beating. It's a 2" wide strip up the front. I am anxious to see how yours turns out using a wood glue and then paint rather than epoxy. Keep up the great videos!

I like to use wood glue and sawdust rather than bondo. Bondo has always come loose on me after a few years. I have had great luck with glue and sawdust. I used cotton canvas painters tarps from the hardware and just white paint to do the leaky roof of my cabin cruiser. I painted the roof then laid on the cloth and painted it. it still leaked so i painted it again. and it still leaked. finally i gave it a third coat and it is so dry and has lasted a year so far. i used rustolium enamel, and what's interesting, it was lightly raining when i was doing all the painting.

I'm kinda' tired this week and I have a lot to do; are the assistants available for the rest of the week? Cheers lads, keep 'er afloat.

Everything I’ve read and watched says that titebond 3 doesn’t bond to titebond 3 when it’s dried.. but it appears it does after watching your video? When you did the corner hole patch the top layer looked pretty dry.. would you say it sticks to itself? I’m doing my diy camper with this stuff.. struggling between using titebond 2 or 3..

The Good thing about these boats are they're never in the water for extended periods of time to need expensive materials 👍

After doing my first boat with poor mans fiberglass, I found it didn't adhere very well to the wood. After a week of fishing everyday, the cloth started pulling away from the wood and the boat leaked a little. I ended up pulling all the canvas off the boat now. It's a complete failer. I don't know if I went too fast and didn't get all the air bubbles out or didn't let it dry completely? (it was ona week before I put it in the lake) SO I'm looking for another alternative to sealing the hull to make it waterproof. I'm looing into using Coat-it by GOOP. It's supposed to be really tough using ceramic beads and Kevlar fiber in it and it has 5 star reviews, so it looks like a good option.

Hey just have a question, I'm from the UK and in the process of making a mini boat, does the PMF work? How did it turn out on your boat? Would love to hear back from you 👍

I liked and subscribed simply because of the corona joke... I am curious about the longevity of this sealant versus fiberglass. I am planning to make another pirogue in the near future and may go this route. If it lasts a few years, I would be pleasantly surprised. If it disintegrates after a couple seasons? Then I'm only out $80.

Hey hope you and your family have a great Easter holiday

You can use paint in place of the glue...

there any more on this boat? was skimming the channel but didnt see anymore on how this bad boy turned out. curious how its holding up, how it looks completed.

I wonder if the plans to that boat are on the internet?

Great video man

Hello, this mini boat project is available for sale where?

Have you ever tested poormans fiberglass in saltwater and if so does it hold up well

Remember back when we were kids ,we thought painting was the Koolest thing?!! Man how stupid were we???

If you do this again. Use titebond 2. Its 1/3 the price. Still water proof. You can also use "good/mistint"paint to stick it down then paint the top.

How much is the polyester resin in your country ????

csn i use boat resin, i mean wood polish for boats

What is very 'flexible' is that a T shirt? seek 08:41

i dont get it. fiberglass resin is not that expensive and far more durable. that bottle of wood glue costs not much less than an entire half gallon of resin depending where you source it. just sayin.
