The XFB Foam Boat
      #35494 - 04/06/06 06:33 PM

Okay folks, Ever since I built the original foam boat a couple of years ago, I've been off on other projects. Not to mention completely inundated with more requests than I could possibly ever respond to about it. I mean literally thousands of questions from people nationwide. All I can say is duckhunters must be resourceful cause I got private messages till that box was full, e-mails to my work, and even phone calls? how the hell anyone found all that out I don?t know.

So here is the deal... I'm gonna build another one this summer, and this time I'm gonna detail the exact directions and build list... I'll take a photo tutorial and a build it with a timeline. I may even measure out dimensions and just give them away. Although I think I could have sold enough plans to this thing to be a millionaire by now.

I'll post it here and give everyone one what they need to do it themselves.

Bout damn time ya showed up around here. Afterall, your name is on the deed here as well as mine!!

I know I was one with questions to you as well,,and I do appreciate your help. It's an easy boat to build, and one that should work well/hold up for years.

how's that little girl of yours? Wish we could have gotten together and hunted 4-rivers again this year. There's always next season, good luck with the new venture.

I have a foam boat plan worked out that I hope to build this summer. I wanted to do it last summer but never got a chance to. It has drastically different construction and should be even easier to build than your design and polyester resin can be used making it cheaper. The details are top secret at this point cuz I'd be really pizzed if 50,000 Refugeites built one from my plan before I got to.

Yeah, I thought about pooring a block of polyurathane foam and using poly resin on it since it wouldn't melt.

Nice looking layout. epoxy resin is not for newbees. From what I have heard Geno @ paints plus in Stover basicialy oded and spent some time in the hospital because of exposure to the fumes.
