  1. Should be a public service Kia kaha team of 5millio.on the road to zero
  2. Have done it to I think every vechicle with a cowl I have owned. It's real easy when everything else is rusted out so you start from base level lol
  3. Shhhhh don't look at it It will be leaking from the rusted out seam in the cowl. V.lame to weld up
  4. Bought another trike Probably a triang, tuff? Or some variant of that Very well used, front tyre and spokes are stuffed. So good candidate for a trailer
  5. Modern sideskirts etc are held on with male/female push in clips and then 2 bolts at the ends Might I suggest Nissan wingroad parts Rivnuts are always good too
  6. Get him to watch his training video, kia kaha road to zero 4.38 is the bit Rust is not corrosion damage. Corrosion damage is pitting, heave, bleed, a hole. Minor surface rust like a stone chip is just rust. Best to send his inspector number off to ensure he is up to date with his training
  7. I have started a few if those pocket bike 2 strokes like that, using a drill you have to be quick to take it back off when it starts, or the nut unscrews itself. I think I ended up loctiting it on
  8. If you are good with oil changes and don't cook the oil regularly, then they last for 30+ years When they do stain you can use a little brake cleaner and a small bottle brush Source:shitheap bikes
  9. Need a chair now 3 size stool. 2 chair heights and the bigger stool. Gives a few years of growing hopefully
  10. New place has a composting toilet, he will be putting lots of himself in there too
  11. Using the leftovers of the drawers, I made a tiny oak desk and drawer. Not sure how I'm gona finish it, but kid is gona scribble all over it anyways. Used up my collection of vintage screws too, so it's indistinguishable from one built in the 40s
  12. I have straightened it using the relief cut in my sheds concrete floor. Just roll it out with light pressure I jambed one end under the edge of the wall, and walked it out, came out just perfect
  13. Is bundy unacceptable? https://www.brassfit.co.nz/bundy-tube-2
  14. Macs equipment is a kunifer supplier, kunifer makes 3/8. They maaaaay have some
  15. Ruined a nice period piece of furniture these last few weeks Ebonised the drawers with a solution of strong black tea, and steelwool dissolved in vinegar Then sanded, and bleached the original stain out with lye and then hydrogen peroxide. Really wanted to avoid the orange/golden tone of the oak showing through. So whitewashed it all with some bone white to match our window frames
  16. Yellow bikes are great, I hope you have the matching suit
  17. Lever arm morrie trick is just put thicker fluid in, 30wt I think it was for a firmer road feel Have also seen a tube with adjustable fitting added to connect the two cylinders to give adjustable dampening
