    what are you listening to v.2.0

    Having a cousin as the lead Trumbonist in a Philharmonic Orchestra and a friend doing the same it is not as hard as it first seems. When you play at that level it is all just muscle memory. They explain what they want to do and then they do it. Make a few adjustments and then do it again. It...

    what are you listening to v.2.0

    I have 2 that I will add. Dan Vasc and Disturbed. They both are cover singers and have a huge library of songs. Dan is amazing with his anunciation being so accurate. Never a slurred word even though English is not his first language. Disturded did a cover of Sounds of Silence and when Micheal...

    Come tour this Machine Shop that is being liquidated

    This is 55 minutes of someones life. It was just posted 3 days ago. The machines, tooling and anything associated with a machine shop is unbelievable. The auctioner says it will take a minimum of a year to auction it all off. You watch this and you are just in awe of what is there and then near...

    Favorite movie and other nonsense

    I dont imagine many have seen this one. Absolute box office flop and then just faded away. Ruined the Writer /Director but she has finally started getting recognition for it. Also if you are not familiar with IMDB its an unbelievable resource for movie information. International Movie Data Base...

    An interesting picture from an estate sale coming up next week

    Now we know why these "electric cars" dont have an open grill. It would blow out the flame.

    Need help with ACME threaded rod information

    My concern is the leverage my 320 pound arse will generate when I sit on the edge or lean over and it gets bound up. I figure the bend will be the rod at the threaded center it screws into or the top plate will give up. I dont know??? I have a habit of over building AND over thinking things like...

    2014 Baja Warrior

    I have a friend with a 1965 Shelby GT350R. He has every piece of paper and history on the car since it was bought new in mid 1966. It has been raced all over the USA and Europe. Went to the Nassau Speed Weeks and was even raced in Venuzalla. The story goes that it was in Europe in 1967 and the...

    2014 Baja Warrior

    DO NOT USE WET SAND AND HEAT! Use dry sand and pack it as you fill it with a tamping rod like a Muzzle Loader tamping rod. Best sand bend results will come with a welded closed end and then fill and then a hard wood plug that is compacting the sand as it is driven in. You also have to get the...

    Need help with ACME threaded rod information

    Went to McMaster Carr first and it was just confusing for me. So I came where I have faith that a fellow member has this information from experience.

    Need help with ACME threaded rod information

    I need some help with ACME threaded rod strength. I cant seem to find good info on strength. In my application its not overly critical but I dont want to have a "hardware grade" piece that will flex and bend. I need to build a shop stool and I want to use a 1" X 12" piece of threaded ACME rod...

    Post your cars!

    I understand the one that got away.... I have had a few of those too. Some that were special to just me and some that were unique enough that they were the only ones I ever saw in person. I had an advantage. I was in the used car business after I graduated. My Father opened a Used Car lot in...

    Post your cars!

    Nice Joe! The beginnings of a Hirahata Clone??? Pictures dont do this car any justice once you have stood 3 feet from it and just took in all the beauty that it exsudes. It was an emotional experience for me as I never in my life thought I would get to see it in person. I had admired it for...

    Any Indy 500 Fans?

    You should drive around it if you really want to grasp just how big it is. I drove my 1964 Falcon to Indinapalis from Charleston SC for the Car Craft Street Machine Nationals in 1979 And part of the event was to drive your car around the track. They paced you in small groups to 35 MPH but some...

    Honda to stop producing 'mini bikes'

    I have a friend that retired in 2016 after 36 years of teaching World History. He said they took history out of the history books years ago. The last 12 or so years he taught the kids had no clue who Napolean was. Thier reply was always Napolean Dynamite? They new nothing about the important...

    Heald Super Bronc VT-812 craigslist find.

    All you needed to do is cut something to space the bead apart. Just pieces of wood is all you need to stretch it back into shape. Then leave them in the sun as long as it takes to get them to relax. Inside of a closed car in the sun is best.
