How do you create curly weed walker cord for the rod leashes? Thanks. Great video

Can wrap around a piece of wood and fill pan up with water and boil for awhile it will take the shape of the circle wood I cut the end off an old wooden broom stick

Search a guy named Professor Salt on here. He has a great video on how to make them. Cheap and easy.

Curious to know how you connected your pcp piple rod holders to your crate? I used zip ties on mine, but a bit unstable.

James Ireland - 6 years ago

Can use screws bolts and couple of washers

Alan Spolar i duct tape the wire ties to the pvc. it helps stop the slip.

Looks to be a small bolt, wing nuts and bolts are your best friend in things like this.

cool I wish you would show us how it hooks to the kayak

gmonkman - 6 years ago

? just goes in the rear well. If you want to secure it in case of capsize, then, well, string!

@rizangler - Thanks, will try this

To make the weed wacker cord coil first wrap tight around a small pipe (pvc). Drill a hole to each end of the pipe to thread the weed wacker cords through so it maintains the tight loops wrapped around it. Now boil for about 5 minutes in a pot of boiling water. Then place in freezer to cool . The cords will maintain the spring like shape. Its pretty cool.

Tideman66 CW - 8 years ago

that's right, just a twist on this ....once you take out of freezer,,,put in a drill and have someone hold the other end stretched out a bit....then reverse the coils...it will make it much tighter. ....

Hello Christopher, was it you who had a video explaining how to make the bungee that you are using to hold your roods. How did you made those???

Tj's Outdoors - 9 years ago

+Terry Gockley Ebay Im selling some if your interested. Or Pm me and it will be cheaper

Nice crate bro, can't wait to set mine up!

Alexander Underwood - 9 years ago

Btw anyone needing a milk crate, try your local Cracker Barrel if you have one. They have em daily and don't use em all. Doesn't hurt to ask!!

Nice set up btw, to the poster!

Keith James Lapere - 9 years ago

awesome video,great idea with the stern light, Don't have to remember to turn it on at dusk.

Jackson Meuter - 9 years ago

How do you make the stretchy line

roger bressette - 10 years ago

Thanks

Charsept - 10 years ago

That kayak look awfully familiar. Clearwater Mist 8.6?
31" wide with a 295 lbs. weight capacity. Sounds like a nice fishing platform.

CtYakFishin - 10 years ago

Great video! How did you coil weed whacker cord like that for lanyards? Been looking for ideas to make my own and this is perfect.

Chris Choncek - 10 years ago

I assume your Pvc rod holders are directly behind you while seated? If so, why do you have your crate lid opening from the other way? If the holders aren't directly behind you, isn't that awkward to get out? Nice job though.
