    198x SS-150 rebuild

    Admiral and I redid the entire boat, so we needed a good rivet gun. Plus I went with a 4X so I could do 3/4. Pretty sure below is where I got mine. https://www.yardstore.com/riveting/pneumatic-tools/rivet-guns/surplus-pneumatic-rivet-guns SHSU

    198x SS-150 rebuild

    Couple things, 1. What kind of rivet gun do you have? A true rivet gun or an impact from Harbor Freight/Equivalent? I tried the Harbor Freight, then an Amazon Special, and finally a used Aircraft Rivet gun. It would have been cheaper if I had just gone to the used Aircraft Rivet Gun...

    My Starcraft

    I found the same and also most of the hardware was steel and not SS. Everything will rust eventually, guess Starcraft didn't think we would be redoing hulls 50 years old. SHSU

    1980 Holiday 181

    I agree with that. That is one thing I wish I would have planned for better. More space for all the wiring and such. SHSU

    Shoestring Starcraft SS160 Resto-mod - let the long slow road begin

    Maybe disassembly and reassembly will work. I took mine all apart and reassembled with new rivets. Haven't had an issue with sagging and such. (Now I need to go check my window...) lol SHSU

    Shoestring Starcraft SS160 Resto-mod - let the long slow road begin

    I ran into a similar issue on mine. Ultimately, I had to add a shim under mine to level them out. Plus under the back braces too because of the added thickness of the flooring. SHSU

    198x SS-150 rebuild

    Starcraft 1971'? 16' to Duck Boat Rebuild

    What temperature did you apply it in? Once epoxy starts to kick it usually cures faster, not slower. Did you mix enough hardener and for long enough? I would do a test sample with your spare epoxy to see if you have a bad batch. SHSU
