Random slightly cool stuff you built but not worth its own thread, thread

I made a muffler, its a a chambered style, makes my car sound mean.

After much experimentation we've worked out how to laser etch into concrete pavers....much easier than sand blasting!

We've got interest from some town planners up north, really need to get this in front of planners in Christchurch for their urban rebuild.

i would like a blueprint of my car etched on the concrete under it thanks

perhaps a full manual too

[Mof]

Should look good when the etch lines fill with oil

Sweet rammer I built out of a rfb25det gearbox mainshaft with some glue heatshrink and a bit of 32mm electrical conduit.

Plus some yards I have been building after hours. This is the reason I have no drive shaft or working gearbox and my trip to Nats via chch is only 3 weeks away. ....

so i had a old hospital bed kicking around at my folks for about 8 years so though i would put it to good use

 

stripped it down and turned into into a motorbike stand. this is version 1.0 still want to lower it more so its easy to get on and off so will use some smaller castors and mount them up higher.

hopefully have some at work and need some with a lock. dont like the ugly brace for the front wheel but made it all in a hurry

I made this gas forge the other day, I thought it would be slower than my coal forge but its not, I made the gas burner to.

Watcher forging with something that long?

I've got one I built using a 9kg gas bottle. Waiting for winter to come then I have a project to finish (some I started for the missus years ago).

Can I have the regulator and stuff? I want to make an LPG motorcycle

[The Bronze]

Shit. Sorry, a guy just came to get them tonight. Sold for a dollar on trade me. He might give you his old smaller regulator. He wanted mine because bigger.
