It went pretty fast with a tiny 500watt drill engine✌🏻 just imagine what it will do with a 170HP superbike engine🤙🏻🤪

Tip for welding aluminum. Always clean surfaces with acetone before welding, even if it looks clean. Wipe your feed rods with acetone as well. It's a good idea to also use a wire brush or green scotchbrite pad where you plan to weld just to make sure surface residue is gone. For areas that will be welded don't mix materials with abrasives, meaning abrasives used on aluminum should only be used with aluminum. Taper the amps at the end of the weld to prevent suck-back (can be source of cracks). Turn up your post flow time to at least 5 seconds, I usually use 7 seconds minimum at 17-25 cfh. I like using the foot pedal with aluminum because there's a small temp difference between a good consistent weld and having it blow out. Every time you dip the rod it sucks heat out of the weld and can cause it to re-solidify so I usually manually pulse to keep it in the sweet spot. But overall starting out on the thicker material is definitely easier and will help get the basics down with minimal issues.

I can't get over the fact that this thing already moved faster under drill-power than my small boat with 4hp outboard Tomos used to go flatout. Amazing work! Looking forward to the next part!

Het blijft toch altijd makkelijk om nederlanders te herkennen met dat engels :)

That's right! Nobody told you it was difficult, or even impossible, so you went out there and made it work! What you do is a source of intense inspiration! I'm heading to my garage right now to make that space useful! 🇧🇷 😊

Very cool! Well done! Must get more into aluminium welding myself. Gonna wait for the next episode. Cheers.

Always so impressed with your skill set. For that being your first aluminum welding project, you sure picked a challenging one. That said, you are doing great as you always do! Always use lots of sealant on all mated surfaces and on any screws sunk, a dab in the hole before you screw it in. Of course you know this so I apologize for my two cents of advice🤗 What a cool project👏

What an amazing engineering feat you accomplished here. So awesome glad I found this channel 👍🏾

First, excellent video and you have “mad” skills and experience! Second, major kudos to you for doing all the work and making this available to people who want to try their hand and duplicate! New to your channel recently and enjoying every video, keep up the awesome content!

When grinding aluminium with abrasive tools a little bit of candle wax helps a lot to prevent it from clogging up and start smearing the aluminium instead of cutting it. Just dab it onto the tool once in a while. When hack sawing the blades might tend to stick and jump so a little cutting fluid, ethanol or WD40 helps and same goes for rotary filing and any blade cutting.

Just ran across your channel and love the build and I’m not trying to be one of those people but the force of water going thru that pump I’m afraid will blow those wood screw out pretty quickly, I would also glass the plywood box in a little more on the inside and secure the alum. plate on the bottom. Don’t underestimate the power of water. Again I like the build

First just wanted to say, this is absolutely incredible! Secondly, i work a lot with water jets and I definitely recommend you adding a gasket to the connection point between the impeller and the drive nozzle, as any leaks here when you start adding series power will be a massive pain.

That would've already been impressive when using the proper tools. But building half the tools necessary for this and achieving such a nice finish? Next level, you are truly incredible.

I'm a Machinist of 35 years and I have worked with many fine fabricators. You have skills and would be welcome in any shop. Great job

(Sharing my expertise since you share yours) The camera settings on the Timelapse isn’t really the source of the problem what I think you’re seeing is banding from the LED lights. You can fix it by using a slower shutter speed or matching it to the hz of the lights. Filming weddings I have to deal with that all the time and it’s annoying lol Slowing the shutter speed on a Timelapse will actually give beneficial results too as you can start to introduce some natural motion blur. Love the content dude! Keep up the good work

This is my new favorite channel. I binged everything a couple months ago...now I drop everything when you have a new upload. Your ingenuity is inspirational. Also, I am a professional engineer and CAD expert. I for one can attest to the effort you put into your drawing plans. That must have taken forever. For such a young guy...you have some great skills.

Really cool build man! I need to start doing videos like this. Got a ton of equipment but became disabled, might be able to slowly build cool stuff though when the body allows.. anyway I'm glad the younger generation is getting into the makersphere... so many people don't know how to build ANYTHING, cant even assemble an IKEA furniture, seems like actual crafting is becoming a dying art. Keep the art alive man, youre doing great! By the way, amazon has 2 burner forges for under 200 bucks... if youre interested in expanding your shop and skills. I got one to replace my old diy forge, theyre really nice kits.

You have my respect just for the improvised metal bender. Great work!

superb job on tackling this project, As you have found out welding aluminium requires very meticulous cleaning I use a spray solvent from Loctite SF 7070. It works very well dry's fast and cleans off any grease and contamination perfectly. I even use it to wipe the rods down as well its surprising how dirty they are from the drawing processes.

Your aluminum welding skills are better than a lot of guys I work around, and this is their profession 🎉 great content just subed!!!

You’re awesome! Amazing what can be done with hand tools and modern software combined with the dedication and hard work. Great filming and editing too! If you muted the audio during Timelapse’s using power tools and added some rights free music it would be even better.

Incredible job! I can already see you building a full blown offshore speedboat

Amazing talent for banding metal and sense for fabricating,bravo 👏👏👏

This is great project no CNC machines all done by hand and it’s looking great and a great motivator I’m wanting to build a little boat now been wanting to do it for years. Your savings on making those parts was a super awesome process that my ass can do at my home shop without a lot of bud dollar tools 🤙

You sir are ahead of your time… great viewing.

Homemade madness bringing things to you that anybody should be able to build but in fact nobody else can.

great stuff. I might just get your plans from your site. I have a CNC plasma table, so instead of wood I will substitute aluminum for the whole thing.

One of the first things that you learn in geometry is that a circle is comprised by an infinite number of straight lines 🤔. Great work with the homemade bender. I'm not sure how much cleaning you are doing before aluminium welding, but clean joints with scotchbrite and wipe with acetone first.

Ini kerja yg paling kemas saya tengok k brad tanks k

I work in a fab shop, ten years now. I will fight anyone that says your not a master fabricator.👍 BTW welding aluminum is a pain in the ass. Ever if you've done it for years and year's. One of my welders tells me, for him it welds better when the tungsten is more rounded, rather than sharp.🤙

Living the dream! Thanks for filming and sharing it.

This will be lethal with the bike engine, amazing work mate

Very cool you put a lot of time into the design and it payed off ! It is working effectively for the drill to move it that well

alleskunner je bent een genie.

This is amazing. Can't wait to see it finished.

Guauuuuu....Fantastic...!!...Gracias por Compartir....!!!...Saludosss

Super can do attitude. You will go far in life

Mate!!! I think you're an incredibly talented young man who is going to become very deservedly rich!!! Your videos are amazing!!! Well done and thank you! 👍👍👍

A lot of passion and application in this work. Congratulations.

The welding certainly improved throughout this process. Those last weld almost looked professional. Welding aluminum is a bit tricky and I suck at it

Brosif, I have to say this is amazing work. You truly have a gift. In my 35 years of life, I have never seen a metal bender make round shapes.. Maybe I've been living under a rock, but you sir have opened up a new option for me to try! How do you like the welding table so far. I read that it's cast iron.. Does that make any difference to iron sheet when welding, or strength? TIA!

My brother in christ this is some stellar work! I've been looking for a way to add propulsion to a dinghy I bought kinda accidentally. Your design fits the requirements damn fine!

Cool job!! Just have to sub!! Always wanted to make a boat with a jet drive, just a tip when welding Ali clean it with a wire brush or flap disc just before you weld it as you need to remove the oxcide lair before welding and make sure it's really clean , the oxcide has a higher melting point than the Ali.

Very well done! Cant wait to see it complete.

Really impressive, man. I'm waiting for the next part.

Was waiting for this video.. Can't wait for the next one! Great job

Aluminium forms an oxide layer almost instantly that interferes with welding so you should grind or wire brush it of around the welding areas right before welding. You may want to wipe it of with alcohol as well as the plastic film might have left some residue on the surface.

Keren Pak, saya bisa belajar banyak dari proyek ini. Semoga suatu saat bisa bikin juga. Tidak sabar menunggu video berikutnya

wild man! took Seadoo-inspired parts and put them in a GP Yamaha concept hull! truly a mad scientist!

First class craftsman extraordinaire. You rock bro 🫵🏼

LOVE the work cant wait for part 4

oh ffs this is what I've been looking for. A slightly bigger boat and a vw 1.9 tdi with that is gonna be awesome. Also impressive performance for a 500w drill.

That time-lapse shot of you cutting out the templates was really cool, I'll subscribe to you for that alone.

ik weet niet waar ik moet beginnen met de complimenten man! het zelf bouwen van een jet?? in een schuurtje?? met standaard gereedschap?? je eerste keer aluminium lassen ( op zo’n groot project gelijk) ??? de video editing kwaliteit?? erg indrukwekkend vriend , blijf vooral zulke videos maken , zal ik ze met plezier blijven kijken !!! English ; i don’t know where to start with the compliment’s man! building your own jet?? in a tiny shed?? with some diy tools?? first time aluminium welding (on such a big project) ?? the video editing quality?? very impressive my friend keep making these kind of video’s and i’ll keep watching them with a lot of pleasure!!!!!

Awesome work, man! Thanks for great great video!

Awesome. Excellent fabricating and building skills.

Absolutely amazing!! Great job!

In Morocco, we say “Kayen” meaning you exist. There is also a song that says “You are a teacher” by Saad Al-Majarred. I loved the work💚🎩

Outstanding work, looked like a lot of fun.

That's some mighty fine bending work from such a rudimentary bender.

Ik ben echt fan van dit soort videos. Dit is echt uniek en een knap straaltje werk! Ga zo door ik zou er zo ook eentje maken als ik de ruimte had. Vraag me wel af hoe het zit met aluminium moeheid

Finally someone who builds it properly like I would if I needed one

Very cool project! I love the can do attitude! Keep making cool stuff!

That's incredible with the tools you had available!

Love your work, I found a good pair of tweezers and a magnifying glass are good to have when using carbide rotary files those little slivers get everywhere.

In my opinion it looks like you did a pretty darn good job for attempting that for the first time. I did however thought that instead of using the aluminum spacer you welded to make the pivots for the turning device which you also threaded in order to use a bolt for fastening the part that pivoted to provide the ability to turn would worry me because of the bolt backing out and resulting in loosing the ability to steer the craft.This brings me to suggest from experience when relying on the mechanical reliability of such design to use a sturdy dowel pin in replace of a bolt.The dowel pin can be welded to the turning device giving you a more reliable pivot.To implement a sleeve on the dowel pin for added wear longevity would be even better,that choice is up to the builder.You will need to install one dowel pin with the pivoting turning device attached, then insert the second dowel threw the pivoting turning device and weld that dowel.Unless a dowel is torn off or another part has a catastrophic failure,you should never loose the ability to turn while the flow of water is being properly supplied .I know I'm not the best at describing things but hopefully it makes some sense. Never the less,well done my friend,you will be building better than most they call experts sooner than you think.

The drill scoots it along pretty good 👍🏻

Ficou topdlinha, em breve com fé em Deus vo ter um espaço pra fazer essas coisas maravilhosas 👏👏👍

Love the ingenuity & positive attitude Bro !

Typical Dutchman, loves building things properly!!! Glad I found your channel and now subscribed! GO MAX !

Well done. This is a very impressive build from all of your planning right down to the finished product

This man's patience, ingenuity, and attention to detail is amazing!

That's awesome, I bought the same Seadoo 150mm pump for really cheap over a year ago ($200), but I didn't know what to do with it. I even have the seadoo nozzle. Now I just need to make the intake :D

Can’t wait for the next part!

I use inventor for my sheet metal radii. I can calculate your bend angles for each bend, then I use a magnetic digital pocket angle finder on the metal brake for a more accurate bend. Works like a dream.

Can't wait to see the finished product. Subscribing for sure.

Great job with the fabrication. I like how you used a seadoo stator/ impeller and shaft to keep it easy. Any reason you didnt just use the seadoo nozzle and reverse assembly?

Quick and Dirty bender. I love it!!

I recently watched a guy spend the same amount of time and he built a pickle slicer. Lol. You are the man!

bro you‘re a legend

Nice job for first attempt 👍scotch bright pad and acetone before any welds and you will have clean puddle welds

I’m not sure if you realize this, but your bending method is exactly how large aluminum tanks are bent into i.e. booster rockets… Good on you sir good job

Excelente trabalho !!!

Top werk jongen 👍👍👍👍

top video. cant wait to see how you build the rest

I think you are doing great. Consider adding a foil wings (Part 2 of this series :) and your jetski will go a lot faster. You've got a new subscriber. Well done.

You are a genius, a very skilled one.

Cool. I hope it has enough steering angle. And the 4mm aluminium is strong for 200bhp. Look forward to next videos 👍

Very cool project, well done with the hand build pump components.

This has got to be one of the crazier boat build I’ve ever seen, the whole damn thing is custom but keeps a mostly factory look💪

Nice job man exited to see the next part

Pure genius as usual!!!

This awesome, I've been keeping up with the build, I can't believe I missed this. Great job buddy. You gotta be pretty darn proud of yourself. I actually never would have known how one of these ran. It's coming out pretty darn cool. I cant wait to see it finished

Keep it coming please... Pretty excited.

made me feel like im assembling gunpla 1/60 scale. awesome and simple

It's so nice seeing a father son collaboration, even if he doesn't show up on camera. ;)

Ik had niet verwacht dat je dat zelf zou maken, top hoor👍en dat aluminium lassen gaat je goed af, ik weet dat dat niet zo makkelijk is, complimenten weer👍😊

Now THAT is some awesome stuff.

Incredible design and fab! Mad skills.

Amazing videos and well done on instructing details. I cant wait to build one myself, Your the best thank you
