DIY No Weld Anchor ( Pure Awesomeness)

[@nicholasjamesvavricek7171]

Freekin amazing. That's all I know to say. That thing is perfect, no welder required, and easily adjustable for any boat. U r a genius. 👍👍👍

[@FishinNStuff]

Thank you . It's amazingly simple 👌

[@leesmith5419]

Awesome video and I like how you show when you mess up and then correct

[@FishinNStuff]

Yeah I started to refilm that part but it might help someone else remember

[@SluSharkND]

That turned out AWESOME! One suggestion: after all of the paint is done, I got some clear bed liner at wal mart. It seems to hold up better than regular clear coat. Great project, even without the PPE!

[@FishinNStuff]

Lol

[@FishinNStuff]

That's actually a great idea man

[@MMACAMVIDEOS]

What kind of clear bed liner? Is it spray on??

[@SluSharkND]

@@MMACAMVIDEOS Yes, it's Rustoleum clear bed liner. in a spray can, from WalMart

[@MMACAMVIDEOS]

@@SluSharkND thanks!!! 🙏

[@josephpacheco7508]

This things frickin awesome!! I have a welder. I am a welder fabricator and all my buddies come to me always asking to build em things for their boat, I just send them your TH-cam links. Especially stuff like this that you don't really need anything but basic hand tools. #awesome

[@handy-capoutdoors4063]

That's really nice. I think bout the only thing I don't have is the thick walled pipe... will have to see if I can find one

[@benhightowerv]

You could also just use a bolt for the bottom instead of a second I bolt and use a wrench or vise to hold while you tighten. It'd be less of a snag.

[@ms651156]

That I bolt serves a purpose. You attach your chain or rope securely to the bottom loop and use a cable tie to secure it at the top of the anchor. If you get your anchor stuck you can give the rope a good yank and break the cable tie at the top, leaving it only secured at the bottom and pulling it the opposite way. This makes getting a stuck anchor back a breeze.

[@gordonbearden9829]

I think so video is just stupid so much damn work just keep something stable why not just use some allthread and lock nuts and feed done with it just ignorant just trying to make yourself look smart

[@FishinNStuff]

Everyone is entitled too their opinions . But before being hateful and calling people ignorant you should try using spell check next time . Like I said in the video some people want a nice Anchor that doesn't cost Ober 100 bucks . Doesn't mean it's for everyone

[@FishinNStuff]

like Mdiddy said it's so you can get your Anchor back if it gets stuck. I've explained it on some of my other Anchor videos

[@benhightowerv]

@@ms651156 that makes sense. I wasn't thinking about snags when I was watching it.

[@MattLaClear]

That anchor is AWESOME!

[@FishinNStuff]

Thank you Sir

[@chucksmith5002]

Cool looking Anchor . I have Copied a few of your DYI Projects . Enjoyed it keep them coming

[@FishinNStuff]

Thank you Sir

[@bobbymorris4646]

The material used is called thick wall tubing or heavy wall tubing. Great stuff, God bless brother.

[@FishinNStuff]

Thank you Sir . God bless you as well

[@stevestormssr5492]

The problem you had bending that flat bar was two things.
1. Your bar needs to be orange hot and heated from the outside of the bend. That's the side that will be stretched as it bends and needs to be softer.
2. The vice acts as a heatsink that absorbs the heat away from the bar. This one is ok. You can always preheat it before you put it in the vise.

[@copcuffs9973]

I had the same thoughts on the heat sink, but he still figured out how to get it done ✅

[@FishinNStuff]

I appreciate the knowledge. I've never tried it that way . I have a brake press . I ran one a few years at work . Without one I would have scored it , bent it then welded it normally . But I was trying to doing it simpler. And if I mess up I try and leave it in there lol 😆

[@chrisjones2438]

Really love your DIYs. I took 2 pieces of 1 1/2× 5×8 welded on top of each other then welded a chain to it one of the best anchors I've ever used

[@daviddura1172]

magnificent....especially the green splatter!!!!

[@joehatfield7176]

Great build. I made mine with black gas pipe. I left the bottom blade free to swing and fold under the top so it collapses flat for storage. I drilled holes at the junction for a 5/8 thumb screwto keep it in place when deploying it and storing it.

[@fr4me.01]

I just recently bought 2 small boats and a 2 person kayak and all I have is a crappy chinese anchor. I checked online to buy some and literally all the anchors I have access to are chinese garbage. I am so glad you made 2 DIY anchor videos. I for sure will be making at least 2 of these!

[@FishinNStuff]

Thank you . I think I've made 4 DIY anchors so far . And I'll make another one if I figure out a way to do it easier

[@yepyepuhhuh]

I really like this one. I'm one who doesn't weld. This just may be an option for me. Oh, and Katfish is Kool.

[@joebuck66]

Nice build Keith.

[@anthonythompson4110]

That's a good looking anchor. That JB weld liquid steel is awesome! I had to patch a hole in an aluminum oil pan with that stuff. It worked amazingly!

[@FishinNStuff]

It really does

[@copcuffs9973]

My dad ran over a simi bumper laying on the hwy. It punctured the gas tank which started leaking.
He filled the hole with JB weld and a big bolt 🔩

[@FishinNStuff]

@@copcuffs9973 it is good stuff then 👍

[@markb.1259]

Now.... take it to a muffler shop and ask them to run some beads across the important spots so it won't unscrew! Great project Keith!

[@grayjohn5676]

Hi, love your stuff. The next time you need a bike inner tube to cover a chain or for anything, don't cut up a new one. Go to your local bike shop and ask for a used one. They usually have trash cans full of them and the ones you get will not end up in the land fill.

[@FishinNStuff]

That's a good idea . We don't have many bike shops near me . A 4 dollar one from Walmart is cheaper than driving to another town . But that is a great idea 💡

[@jelly_fishing]

Definitely awesome !!!

[@bwcok7947]

TA DAY you did it again! Awesome!

[@MrDukstr]

I like that you can take the screw out of the end and fold it flat

[@FishinNStuff]

If you make it for that purpose, then make one tine bigger than the other so it'll fold completely flat . That's a really good idea

[@mikeshepard3602]

It’s DOM tubing. Excellent video as usual. 👍💥

[@FishinNStuff]

Thank you DOM tubing

[@hentiebeukes5319]

Genius! I like that anchor it is saved and on my to do list. Must try. Thank you for sharing. I have saved a few of your DIY’s cause they are Awesome and easy to do. Very helpful. Cheers

Cheers my friend, thanks for watching

[@danham3344]

Super cool build! I appreciate how you always include your "mishaps" like forgetting the washer. Makes the rest of us feel better about the occasional blooper. Love your channel.

[@itowmyhome797]

Thank you

[@chrisfultz1528]

That's awesome going to have to give that a try

[@JT_70]

Glad to see that the Mapp gas didn’t work…‘cause it didn’t work for me either! I used it to heat and bend 3/16” steel bar to make some light brackets for my boat. I ended up clamping the bar in my vise and beating it into 90 degree angles with a sledge hammer. It wasn’t pretty but I got it done, though I did have to file and sand out some of the hammer damage. I wish I had seen this video first as the pipe wrench was a good idea that I could have used.

[@FishinNStuff]

It worked pretty good after I got it all figured out

[@mchtzn]

Nice work!

[@mikecollins622]

The Zombie Blood Anchor lol I like it.

I don't sell anything. But I sure do appreciate it brother

[@owenscool112411]

Duuuuude that was a Sweeeeet anchor my friend.

[@brianlykins6663]

Another cool project bud. Might have explained why two eye bolts for any that don't know it has to do with attaching chain so if hung up, you can stiff get it up.
Again great job. Can't wait for next video.

I talked about it on my last 3 Anchor builds . I just forgive I guess .

Great build Keith I think I’m going to built me one but I have a wire feed machine so I’ll do it that way! Enjoyed the video as always thank you

[@FishinNStuff]

I like welding em better too

[@manoweb1]

It did turn out awesome! 👍 Very inspiring, got my wheels to turnin'

[@dahutful]

It looks great, and the artist touch at the end is nice. Of course, you could just assemble it and I had a few welds. But where’s the fun in that?

[@FishinNStuff]

I know but some people don't have a weld , and some people can't afford one . So I thought this would be a cool alternative

[@dahutful]

@@FishinNStuff it is indeed.

[@dustinellegood6389]

Great video, I do a little metal work and I have found that when I try bending a piece with heat I heat it out side of the vise and then quickly put it in the vise on the line and then bend it, it works for me better then trying to heat it on the line already like you tried. Maybe that can help you out.

[@FishinNStuff]

I normally just use a brake press . But that's good info . I was trying to do it more simple but that didn't work lol

[@philputnam869]

This is very cool. I fish small rivers from a canoe, and getting an anchor hung up is always a pain. I had previously looked at your other anchor videos and been planning to make one of those until I saw this. I think I'll make mine with one set of tines slightly shorter than the other, and a removable "set-screw" so I can either set the tines at 90 degrees and keep them from spinning, or remove the screw and fold them flat for storing. Was thinking a sort of wing-nut welded to a small bolt sort of thing for the set-screw. Would welcome suggestions on a good way to do this! Keep up the great work and good humor!

[@FishinNStuff]

That you Sir , I think the folding them flat flat idea is a cool idea

[@marctheriault]

I’ve been modifying my new Jon Boat with aluminum and rivets, but having the JBWeld to attach a few necessary pieces to the hull has been a game changer! 👊🏻💥

[@FishinNStuff]

It's good stuff

[@marctheriault]

Quick question, what kind of blade were you using when you cut through your metal pieces with your chop saw?

[@FishinNStuff]

It's not a chop saw , the RPMs are different . It's called a cold cut saw

[@FishinNStuff]

Thank you . Germany that's awesome

[@genesloan3175]

Like it....have you ever thought about a worn out disk brake rotor like that? I thought the solid part of the thick wall pipe with the holes where lug studs go could be your points of non-turning flukes or tines...all bolted and the thickest and eyebolt construction could still be utilized. .with the rotor and thick wall pipe, it ought to easily be a 20 lb anchor....

[@FishinNStuff]

That's a good idea man

[@mikeedwards2384]

If youre fishing deeper or running a longer anchor line, it wouldnt really hurt to let it be able to spin cus youre gonna put a swivel on it anyway

[@FishinNStuff]

That's true , I didn't think about that. And if you use JB weld on the threads on the inside. It would never come apart

But, I do have one question. Immediately after you snipped the tip of the silicone tube, you used the sissers on it a second time. What was that for???

The tip got mashed kinda flat when I cut it so I turned 90deg and opened it back up
