Are we talking about the same vehicle? The big hilux looking thing?

Nice car! Is that a tundra ?

Does the bar tube light up the whole length?

ooooh, i thought it would have the tubes poking out the top of the box.

hey man. looks awesome. I do think you should have the HV pcb sitting flat under the main PCB..looks hard to make safe where it is and its kinda out of place looking.

Damn this is looking good, damn cozy! no need for bigger unless swinging cats is a hobby.

This is exactly why doing everything in writing is so great. Humans are good at making mistakes..

perfect, very cool!

get the cross out and use a slide hammer? (chain and a lump of steel) ?

Man that boat is beautiful. I LOVE the two photos of the old and new boats being pulled out. I have a thing where i compare photos to see whats changed- i find it fascinating. EG, looks like the same letterbox (its done well!) Also.. please explain how the truck trailer manages to pick the boat up and get it secured? I just cant work out how it does it!

wot....lol Man that looked like epic fun

Stay well away from sketchup. fusion 360 is brilliant.

yup! Get the right machine and you could do a one piece bellhousing and gearbox (better as you can then zero on the center of the input) or even stand a dummy engine block on the bed and go to the center of the crank/bearing jounals. Can do all sorts of cool stuff when ya think outside the box a little Also good if you have a large scanner is either scanning in the components flat face OR scanning in a template/imprint of the part- then importing this image into CAD and scaling it to a known measurement (can even include a ruler in the scanned image to get the correct scale) You'd be amazed how accurate you can get things like this. No doubt manually marking out would be great though! just make sure that you aim for 100% accuracy every step of the way as theres quite a few steps to making an adaptor and a little variation at each step could have you out relatively far at the end. EG, use a drillpress, make sure its bed is square to the head, use punched centers and then pilot holes with new drillbits Edit: @ajg193 I missed the bit about the school laser cutter. Probably better doing it by hand LOL

@yoeddynz that step-by-step was awesome ajg193 accuracy of the laser is absolutely not an issue- as an example that is slightly the same but different- our waterjet/laser guy can get holes down to .05mm tolerance. Hurmeez if you go with CAD a good idea is to get test plates cut from very thin material (1.2 would be perfect). The material is cheap and cutting is very quick so its not that expensive and you can test that everything is PERFECT. You can also leave the center of the test adaptor in place but have a perfectly sized hole cut out to check alignment with your input shaft etc etc. Also, I have used trustworthy milling machines with digital readouts for finding hole locations. You can place whatever item on the bed, clamp it down, put your 0,0 point anywhere you want and record the x y positions for each hole to get their relative positions and then put those numbers into your CAD program.

I just had that same thought- so much better than the wheelbarrow wheels.

I dont think anything here is going to top that costume! Adding fake patina/wear/age would work well with the slightly imperfect surface of the cardboard!!!

man you did a good job of repairing that hood damage! I wouldn't have known where to start

Oh wow, that motor is HUGE. I vote minibike frame

I wouldnt go wasting loctite money on loctite superglue. Been using all different brands for 20 years and havent seen a cyanoacrylate of any price fail to work as intended. And yer its great for sticking rubber!

Very sad Chris. Edit, But also hope you are all good.

If that was a new bike available off the shelf I bet it'd sell well

I highly recommend jeremy at cullen engineering at tearoha if ur bits small enough to have them send

Mine isn't that flash compared to others out there., I think mine was reduced to around 900$ from $1200 but guys spend many times that amount. Like everything else though- My skills cannot match its abilities so buying better is no help. I just like that i can practice at home in the city. Cant do that with guns

Its not a laser pointer but a (nearly) zero parallax red dot sight. It projects a red dot onto a curved piece of glass and the dot stays on target regardless of your heads position. Absolutely brilliant on bows.
