[QUOTE="Ranchero50, post: 97731, member: 1523"] More fun, didn't get to do much with the boat today, actually just plain worn out from work and stress. I did make a simple program on the mill to cut the back receiver for the inlet grill I have, it took almost four hours to do it right, almost embarrasing. Little doodad that took up most of my evening. I rewelded most of the original inlet since the shielding gas wasn't working very well the first time around. I need to hammer out the inlet form and weld in filler peices.

The spoon is in front of the inlet grill which is from a Mercury SportJet.

Once it's done I'll finish the new inlet. [img]https://i188.photobucket.com/albums/z291/Ranchero50/Boat/Seadoo%20Swap/DSC06660.jpg[/img] Jamie [/QUOTE]
