I worked on a 1000 ft hole in the ground

Nice work, did the bullets de-solder themselves? What kind of iron did you use to solder them back? Must have been 🔥!
Negative. They both ripped out from wreckage. And I’ve not found a iron that could do that. I’ve been using a micro torch.
 
Made a high clearance bumper for my scx10 and I know it won’t make it drive better but it will look awesome View attachment 303300
Nice job! Looks tough as nails!
Cut down the angle on my ramp. Now it's a baby ramp. Hopefully will only cause baby carnage. :rolleyes:

Thinner polycarbonate panels i tried to replace stock panels with got destroyed quickly by rocks, I bet kydex will last longer...😆
I've got that same 12v drill. Its out lasted a few "good" ones and always gets the job done lol. Battery last forever also, wish I could find another one lmao..


I had to tear into my favorite weed Wacker and figure out why she died on me. Turned out I had really weak spark due to the coil pickup being extremely dirty. So I gave it all a bath and hoping like hell it runs after cleaning the coil lol.
This is a little craftsman ws210. Has really bad reviews but ill tell ya what, it was a temp while my Husqvarna was down and I liked it so much its been 4 years and I still ain't fixed the husky lol. 4 years and pulled 130psi on compression, gets my seal of approval! She's gotta lot of hours lol.

Stripping down and going over everything in the second-hand Outcast 4S V2 I recently got my grubby lil' mitts on -- constantly worrying I was gonna come across some hidden (and expensive) form of damage somewhere, but mostly found just regular wear and tear plus a few jerry-rigged solutions for minor problems. Even the powermodule bearings were still running smoothly!

Only head-scratcher, for me, was a single diff outdrive which didn't look anything like the other three and basically just had electrical tape wrapped around it to prevent the metal pin from falling out (visible in the bottom picture). :unsure:

I'm loving that Europa, The body on that would make my day, I love fiberglass work. There is all kinds of cars I would have loved to have had but my legs are too long ( 38" inseam ), I passed on one of those because I just don't fit. I friend has a turbo Esprit and I can't ride in it let alone drive it. First gen Miata, no can fit.

Gf drives a mx5 and loves it. I love the look but hate the way I fit in it and I'm only 5'10 and 165.
