Thats cause as soon as you say boat everyone thinks you have a million dollars in the bank.. I only have $999,999, 999 geez!

CHARGEIT: I used 3M double sided tape to adhere to the trailer

WANNABE: yes pressure treated wood, stainless staples, and 3m Glue

Yes I was including what I spent on equipment and to build booth but I still spent $2,000 for epoxy primer and single stage paint. I also spent $700.00 on 2 pallets of bagged sand but only used a pallet and a half. We figured out that my cost of sandblasting alone was $54.00 an hour which includes paying my help, diesel fuel for compressor and sand. It took 17 hours to sandblast the first time and since it took 6 weeks to finish the booth it needed sandblast again but took 11 hours the second time with light oxidation.

Take the winch stand/bow stop off and put it in the back of your truck for the ride home and any salt exposure. My buddy's here in VA rusted up immediately after the snowy drive home from MI.
