  1. I've had to do this math several times, but for the life of me I can't remember the equation. I have two bridge saws that run 13-16" blades and I have to calculate blade speed vs. arbor speed for certain materials/types of blades. I usually call my cousin, a physics major. the same reason you should stick with manufacturer recommended tire and wheel sizes, unless you can reprogram for different sizes. Wheel speed is read at the hub, and it can throw your speedometer off quite a bit.
  2. Where did you get the resin body and what donor kit did you use? It looks awesome
  3. This was today. We had the carpets cleaned, so my wife put the odgs outside. We have a gopher problem and my dog thinks he is one. I came home to this http://youtu.be/ucrh2DNKf0g?t=1m5s
  4. Nice paint, that looks great
  5. Yes we do. If this was the last, it would be okay
  6. What a butt kisser. I'm kidding. Mods on any active forum always have their work cut out for them. They constantly get called out. There here to keep everyone in line, not be friends.
  7. I hate the SSR with a passion, but you made it look good. Outstanding model
  8. Not really household, but worn out turn signal bulbs have really nice small springs in them.
  9. WOW that looks good. I bet that can be used to make fiberglass pieces as well
  10. well why didn't anyone tell me?
  11. Welp, there goes all my money http://www.shapeways.com/model/992099/1-24-jack-stands-4-functional.html?li=shop-results&materialId=61 http://www.shapeways.com/model/917788/1-24th-car-dollies.html?li=shop-results&materialId=61
  12. I just stumbled across this http://www.shapeways.com/model/868992/1-24th-scale-jack.html?li=search-results&materialId=61
  13. try HLJ.com (Hobby Link Japan) they have it on their site but it's backordered. I have been wanting this set too. i was told by someone that ordered it and received it that if you place the order, they will eventually get it in a and ship it.
  14. I think he is talking about Best Balsa Kits. Great parts HIGH prices. But he has what others don't
  15. I'm not sure you understand what trolling is.
  16. You complain about his comment being nasty and you turn around and do the same thing. Stop posting whiny topics and getting upset when the conversation doesn't go exactly how you want it to go. I thought we were grownups here?
  17. We just installed some counter tops in this house. I went back last weekend to take some pictures. I took some pics of the bar faucet, I thought it was pretty cool
  18. I have the wheels covered. I ordered a set from HRM. The tires are the problem now.
  19. There are so many good shows on Netflix and Hulu, TV is a waste. I think I pay less than $30/Mo for both subscriptions. Because I need it, I pay about $80/month for my high speed internet. I can't get fiber where I'm at so I have to use Time Warner, which will soon be Comcast, which will suck.
  20. I agree, to a point. You should be able to customize without reducing the value, but sometimes people go overboard.
  21. I agree with everything you posted, but it just reminded me. I am looking at a set of Centerline wheels for my truck. I can go from 16" stock wheels to 20" Centerline forged aluminum and they are lighter than the 16's. I'm still going to upgrade to a big rotor/caliper adapter down the road, but it's nice to know my stock brakes will handle the new wheels for a while.
  22. Look for the settings, there should be a dial or something. There should be a picture of a flower, that is the macro setting for taking closeups. Try it like that, make sure to let the camera focus and it should come out pretty clear.
  23. Keep in mind, this is a pushrod V8. It's amazing how far they can push the envelope with these engines. The Corvette does it every year.
