    I just drove my mk1 V4 everywhere at 50mph. Probably a good thing when one of the retread rear tyres untreaded itself on the motorway.

    Always been happy with my XA welders. You can borrow for a hoon if you like. Probably over ten years old now, but similar to this one maybe. https://tradezone.co.nz/welding/razorweld-mig200-mig-mma-inverter-welder-package-200a-230v-single-phase-c-w-3mtr-mig-torch-arc-set-4m-regulator

    Reflow the solder joints on the socket if you can get to them, they sometimes crack due to flexing.

    It's not uncommon for the solder joints to break on the mobo, so worth opening it up for a looksie @Willdat?

    Nice. Are those Ad1255 drivers?

    Weren't all high density 3.5s double sided?
  7. cubastreet
    Damn that motor's looking nice.

    Who else used to buy single ided 5.25" discs and notch the other side to make them double sided?

    Good plan, I'll hunt for a fire extinguisher company. Some bunnings do co2 and some don't.

    It needs a test too. I'm in the wairarapa so not much local. There used to be a paintball place down the road but they seem to have disappeared. I use more co2 for beer than welding. Now I think about it, if I got a bunnings bottle (6kg) I could fill my 3.5kg bottle and about a dozen sodastream bottles that I use for the beer and then return the bunnings one and get my deposit back.

    Owner bottle might be more hassle than it's worth now, might get a bunnings one.

    Yeah that's a spendy bit of brass. I found a CO2 regulator with the right fitting, but then discovered my tank is empty Survitec in petone used to fill them but their phone number no longer connects.

    I've lost the female-female adapter to connect a regulator to my co2 cylinder. Anyone know where I can get one?

    Looks like maybe it's a weight for the vacuum operated secondary? In which case it probably shouldn't touch anything.

    Curiosity got the better of me and I ordered one with a 2.8" touch screen. $28 shipped from aliexpress. Also a micropython book from the library. I have a grain mill for flour, but each flour works differently from supermarket flour so I need more control over my bread maker. I also want to be able to do sourdough which needs a longer rise time.

    I haven't touched microcontrollers for a long while, but I've got some projects coming up. The first is a babelfish to go between my lithium battery and inverter so they can talk to each other. Luckily someone has written the code so it should be an easy one. He used an esp32, which on the face of it is kind of like arduino but cheaper and more powerful. Anyone got experience with these?
  17. cubastreet
    Yeah why not. It will start. #1 is nearest the pulley, the order is 1324. The carbs will be some sort of hitachi. I've got manuals if you need more info.
  18. cubastreet
    So now you're down to just three? Or did you find some more you haven't told us about?
  19. cubastreet
    Easy. come get one of mine.
  20. cubastreet
    Did they hacksaw the front off the subie box and tig it onto a bit of plate?
  21. cubastreet
    Just don't leave the car standing long enough to dry out the float bowls or it won't start again.
  22. cubastreet
    Soft start might help? My 3600w inverter genny struggles with a concrete mixer. https://a.aliexpress.com/_mKc4WrM

    Is the interfacing not sewn into the cover? I don't know much about upholstery but I guess spotlight would be a good place to try.
  24. cubastreet
    Para cut foam to order

    Cos pausing it when it gets to the letters and changing the filament is cheating.
