I've heard of people taking basket weaving in High School. Never seen anyone take it to a Doctorate level.
Great job on the headliner. I've only put one in, a 70 VW bug.....with roll cage. PITA.
Waiting for you to get your car back is exhausting.
Find the weights with a rounded edge. Weld/bolt a big washer on each side so it overlaps the weight. This will bend square tubing really well. The...
Where is the audio from this? Gotta sound awesome.
Here is the plasma table at work. I can't imagine building one. Kudos and I hope you get your bugs worked out. We have our share with this...
This is by far the most entertaining thread on the forum. Always something interesting to look at and imagine building it yourself. Thanks to the...
Shut up and build it
[IMG] [IMG] Don't know why the picture of the cart pump looks pink, it's very red. These are in my den. And the A38 does turn the numbers...
Awesome Fenchy. I've wanted to do this also. I'll let you build this since I've been working on my VW powered track T. Subscribed.
Take a 4" square piece of thick wall box tubing cap it around 6" long and weld some scrap or rebar to the outside. Cut a 1' x 1' hole in your...
In the late 70's and early 80's we hung out at Auto Haus, a VW speed emporium. I eventually worked there. One day my partner was minding the...
14 miles of vendors. I spent all my money at the stainless steel guy. $7.95/lb.
It was a lot better 30 years ago. Cheaper and wound around behind the power substation. The overflow at the top was always full then too! I agree...
Just curious how you are going to weld it up and not have it pull out of true? Weld the open end temporarily and cut it off after?
There is a special section at Walmart. You have to know who to ask. Either you have one or you run across one through friends, swap meets or...
Everyone knew Joe and Jay. Your furniture looks awesome. Do you sell them? You can't have that many seats in your living room.
Alright, sorry. Last time I was over the house, you were about 5 or 6. Sorry about your Dad.
Looks good, Joe.

How much fuel pressure are you running? Has to be less than 4 lbs. of pressure. More than that and you risk the overpowering the needle and seat.
I like NGK plugs because it's easy to tell the heat ranges and move up and down the steps. Pull your idle jets and see what you have. Just unscrew...
What kind of Webers are you running? IDA's, IDF'S, DCNF's, 48's, 44's, 42's? The idle jet should be accessible from the side. Usually has either...
I used, stole a couple of ideas here to make my next floor lamp. It's a 50th birthday gift for my friend. The prop came from an orange grove, it...
Took the words out of my mouth.
Hard time starting to weld and balling. If it started good, it would continue to weld fine. The contacts weren't allowing good conduction and not...
When that happened to me it was the contactor. I had to replace it. It's like a big relay. Only costs $25 and wasn't hard to replace. The points...
Just an observation, for the ° sign hold "alt" key and type in 0176. I played hell figuring it out. Works every time and I know, it's not...
I clean up twice a year, whether it needs it or not.
