    I made one of these about 4 yrs. ago it does come in handy for a number of things because I also hunt ducks out of mine .

    My first time Kayaking and this Kayak held strong. czcams.com/users/postUgkx4k5UrhC3v_Y4hIEaXLGvHcN5a5aBmZNB The water got pretty rough as a speed boat zipped by me, and the Kayak withstood it (I expected to be capsized). The Ores are very easy to put together, the pump worked beautifully. the seats are a bit hard to sit in after a while (I recommend sitting on the floor). after reading the reviews I was very scared it'd get a hole in it, the material is very strong and durable. The Air valve may need a small Phillips head screwdriver to adjust, other than that, it's well worth the money!(update)I've gone Kayaking in 3 Lakes and 2 rivers totaling about 40 miles. the kayak had two holes and they patched easily and no other problems can't wait for kayaking season this year!

    I saw this video about a year ago.....back then....I thought to myself...hmm.... nothing wrong with dreaming......today....4/28/21.....i just completed my order in amazon to get my old town sportsman its own crate......THANKS A LOT.....GREAT VIDEO....STRAIGHT FORWARD AND SUPER EASY INSTRUCTIONS...... THANKS AGAIN...!!!!!

  • @wildturkey9275
    @wildturkey9275 Před 7 lety +70

    One slight suggestion is at 6:34 you cut the tail end of that bungee. Maybe drill another hole in hte top portion and snake it through that second hole and tie another knot. Now you have a bungee to secure things down in the top portion of that crate also...

    Glad you keep up tradition with that vintage skill saw ... GW used that same one to build the boats to cross the Delaware.

    • @lpburke86
      @lpburke86 Před 5 lety +1

      Not a skill saw.....

    Great Video, fuzzy! I purchased my first fishing yak mid last season, so I will be doing DIY's like over my harsh Canadian winter. Of all the DIY's I have read/watched, I think this is the best because it is simple, and your video is extremely well done. Cheers. Kiai!

  • @jamesthe-doctor8981
    @jamesthe-doctor8981 Před 7 lety

    Great milk crate ideas, thanks, Fuzzy! One of the best things about milk crates is that they're made of HDPE plastic, and the piece you have left over from making your crate lid can be cut up, chopped up (with an old, thrift store blender,) melted with a heat gun, and formed into blocks or sheets you can use to make, well...whatever you want! You can saw, file, sand, drill, turn, or do anything with it that you can do to wood, and you can do it with regular woodworking tools! The possibilities are endless!

    • @Offishal_Lifestyle

      @jamesthe-doctor8981 Před 7 lety +1

      Fuzzy Outdoors TV really? Cool! Glad I could turn you on to it, as I'm guessing you'll probably make some great future videos about it. Some have made forms from 2X4s, and others just use bread pans, cookie sheets, etc. They just use a 2X4, 1X6, or whatever fits best, along with a ratcheting woodworking clamp to compress the hot HDPE. It doesn't turn to liquid, just gets like putty, so you do need to press it down. Have fun, man!

  • @jimmatt8005
    @jimmatt8005 Před 3 lety

    I think you did a fine job. Nothing flashy. Not expensive. Simply a workable solution to a common issue on yaks. That is a good thing. I would like a suggestion on how to incorporate my cart into being stored on one side while on the water. Any ideas?

  • @allenrightmyer8355
    @allenrightmyer8355 Před 7 lety +6

    Hey Fuzzy, I loved your video and built my own following your instructions. It turned out perfectly. In my center tube, I stuffed it with a foam wrap, made it perfect to stick my orange triange warning flag (on a fiberglass poll). Thanks for the tips, it was easy to follow and a great end product!

I'm retired and I have the time to fish now. Loved your video on making your own crate! I'm going to go right now and buy a couple of crates!

    Fuzzy,
    Mad a similar box before I saw your video. i do ALOT of salt water // baitfishing along with sweetwater bass/pickerel/panfishing. One thing did to my homemade crate was completely line the top with stained/urethaned strips of 1/2 inch wood... makes a nice work surface or bait board or fsh cleaning board. Great Video!

  • @kentfreier5705
    @kentfreier5705 Před 6 lety

    Awsome, Fuzzy. Built my own thanks to you. Bought a yoga mat, cut it up to mats on the bottom of the top and bottom crate to keep things from falling through. You might consider that. You did great, though.

  • @ernestoliveira2018

  • @rootedwanderer2991
    @rootedwanderer2991 Před 8 lety

    Dig the idea with the lid made from the bottom of another crate. You could even drill holes on the sides towards the top part of the lid and then put bungee cord laced across it to keep stuff on top secured. Kinda like the front or rear of some kayaks already have. Great job man!

That way I have ice cold water all day saving the 3/4 one for last since it will take most of the day to melt down.

I also like the idea of tying down the creek to the kayak but dolphin come to my catch inches from my kayak taking in the create the first time. Hopefully third time is a charm thank you for the video I will try this a go.

    Great job on the video!...It was well explained and easy to follow.
    I have seen other videos on this same subject but your approach is practical and has a smaller footprint when put together. I bet you could probably figure out how to put some kind of lid on the hinged top crate that, in my opinion, would complete this build. As soon as you figure this one out, I will be at the hardware store the day after you release the video. LOL.
    I just subscribed to your channel. Good job!
