Got some sense back and went back to work. Got the last layer out, all that's left is to chip away/grind out the bedding and the rebuilding can begin. Finally have to put in a glass order

hey I made it out to the boat like you said about 2'' all together , I can't find the baja 24ol that had the big blower motor in it, they did not move the tank moved the glass around the pulley but that needs like 5'' I think so I might have to cut my tank down so I can move the bulkhead so the pulley fits. the 24ol was from penn area 93 or 94 I think they sold it cause its not listed anymore.

If you reeeeeaaaaly wanted to cut the tank down it probably wouldn't be that hard. I think you could probably get about 6 inches off the front before you get to the filler/breather. It would suck to have to cut some off the front and the back because of the pick-ups/fillers and have to re-weld both ends.

Ten hours of chipping and grinding, got about 95% of the bedding goop off. Need to get a better dust collector, the 'snow' in the pics is kind of funny

Wow Brent looks good. Had planned on coming over this weekend but with the snow on saturday I had to plow and then finish the attic door Sunday.

Going to be in town this coming weekend?

Yeah, the rest of my supplies (the first order anyhow) should be here sometime this week. Hopefully I recover by then, I spent most of the day Sunday riding four wheelers and my hips hurt like hell. Then I got the worst case of food poisoning ever early Monday morning, was hugging the toilet for 8 hours, it sucked. I think somebody shat in the pizza sauce at Little Caesars or something, the boys got sick too.
