  1. The clip looks excessively thick and looks to have a huge amount of open space for a belt. Seems like it should have been printed flat instead of with the stand-off where the screws are.
  2. Adding a switch in a more convenient place might be easy. What bugs me more often than the shift programming is the torque converter clutch programming so I've added a switch on several vehicles so I could manually lock it.
  3. Curious if you've solved the problems and what it took.
  4. And if it took 10.0003 seconds he'd remind you that he had identified a potential flaw in the design.
  5. It is, if you're on the right side of it. The other side gets hot as hell.
  6. Almost as timeless as a Bird.
  7. Retard alert: the center hole in the one you gave me didn't exist to me 'till I saw that photo. So much so that I had to go look at it to see if mine has a center hole, yup. I guess my brain automatically saw it as a six shooter cylinder, nothing you can use the center hole for. I had a seventh thing I wanted in it and had to choose which one to put in, problem now solved. The mind works in mysterious ways.
  8. Ceramic coating the bowl seems like a hassle so I've taken to sipping a bit of it before bed, my poops are now slicker than shit.
  9. If it's not VIN locked you could sell it. The only one I've dealt with 'unlocked' itself when the vehicle was returned to stock tune.
  10. Elegoo black ordered, I have a couple things I want to make.
  11. I was going to ask Carlos directly, then figured it might help others to do it here. Are there 'go-to' or 'stay away from' filament brands? I'm mostly looking at single color PLA, but might want to try TPU. Suddenly I have a new question: is there any inherent advantage to different colors, like being more durable or better flowing? I lean toward using Amazon for the ease, but I'll go other routes if it makes sense. I want something that just works reliably, cheap is a bonus, but I think I won't print a lot so I don't mind paying more if it's warranted. It's just fucking plastic, how could you fuck this up? ...so my gut says that there's probably some horrible shit, many that are perfectly fine, and maybe some premium shit with a massive price hike for some tiny advantage. And now I'll stop speculating and wait for the right answer 🙂
  12. Worst case scen But yea, it should be safe to use as a gauge cluster. There are other cheap options, I use a tablet and Torque Pro which can be set up for many different vehicles.
  13. Tell me you're gay without telling me you're gay. 😇
  14. I can barely slip a bicycle into the garage, and wouldn't have room to work on it. I've been wanting to build a shed along the wall of the garage and move the machinery into it, maybe some day. The only person I know who knows how to do it who I could probably trust wants to build it to 'house standards' which would be quite spendy even at a buddy price.
  15. And it's fairly small, should be able to do the whole thing without getting tired.
  16. The title showed up a few days ago, but the rain hasn't let up long enough to get it out to the driveway to clean it up and take photos. I have to roll it backwards through a muddy area, it'll probably take two people to pull it off. Since the weather's been shitty I've been working on indoor stuff, one project was getting the front room re-organized so I can bring the chopper in and be able to work on it when it's cold/raining out. Moving it and the lift will be at least a 2 man operation.
  17. I tried searching for it and can't find it. Maybe someone with better skillz can.
  18. I think I piggybacked on the thread Carlos had started about it. Pretty sure 1972 R5 was in the title. After trying a few things I settled on very fine steel wool and oil. Being a 2 stroke I had to use castor oil, you'll have to use Italian olive oil. Where the rust was really thick I first scraped it off, probably with a screwdriver.
  19. Some neglected chrome will clean up surprisingly well. "Everyone" says that the chrome on 70's Jap bikes is junk, yet the R5 cleaned up pretty well considering how bad it was. There are chrome paints that supposedly look very close to the real thing. I don't know if any of the cans of spray chrome paint qualify, I haven't tried any in decades, but everyone says they've come a long way. "Pro grade" chrome paints are said to be very good.
  20. Too slow, use one of your Dewalt drivers.
  21. I hadn't thought of it, but yea, seems to be a thing...but not really. The 6.4 Ford was destined to blow up, it's what they do and I was surprised it went as long as it did. The Chevy he had before that I think had a billion miles so it's natural that it would have problems.
  22. If you get a chance, and fucks to give, check and clear the computer before you shut it off. I'm curious to know if it'll still flag the code at startup or if it'll take another start/run cycle to set. I'm also curious to know if it'll have a pending code for the cat or if the hole 'cured' it.
  23. "Hit or miss" You certainly didn't miss the hit of the crackpipe.
  24. Guessing around $1100/mo, unless she has a Mexican cook and Chinese nutritionist.
