I went out for a nice ride after I finished swapping a Predator 212 onto my mini bike and ended up shredding my shoe on the exposed clutch.. no bueno. I looked a little bit online for a clutch cover but I didn't see anything that I really liked the look or the price of, so I thought what the...

I tried just about everything there is on the hot side of things. Of course lead won't stick, and it's too soft anyways. I tried a quick zap with a wire feed welder, and the cable just went up in smoke. I tried the one off of youtube where the guy melts silver solder into a hole drilled in wood...

Looking for a do it yourself, homemade DIY mini made from the plans popular mechanics and boys life used to offer around 1965 66 using old bicycle frames. A lot of the plans called them Scoot'r-bike. The more unique and features the better. Made a few as a kid. Rather find one from the era...

Well after some advice on the best way to cut paver brick a month and $61 dollars later I have it done. this was my first time doing this and I was on my own. I started it Sunday afternoon and finish Monday afternoon (about 10hr's total). My plan was to re-do the old limestone sidewalk with...

I am building my Predator Hemi 212 engine and would like a good video giving details on installing a stock length billet rod. I am also installing cam and springs. I found great videos for that. Flywheel is easy done that before. Any suggestions?

What I need is a simple Bright Lights/Loud Alarm and maybe 3-4 magnetic door sensors. What I do not want is cameras,cell phone hookups, etc. I know which side of the structure is vulnerable, we are light sleepers, and if it is bright and loud enough they will get out fast. When I check...

Eventually decided I had no choice on this one - the local bender for sale is almost 1000$ and its a wrap around type, not the high quality pull around type. The JD2, JMR and Hossfeld prices are not bad, but shipping is insain. This type of bender is essential for me as everthing has to be...

Put this together for a friend this weekend and thought why waste good photo's. Coz I know you guys love the Pics. So best thing to do is have the motor in the frame. Remove the stock exhaust in the case of clones. The gasket will be used to make the flange for the header. Place the gasket...
