T-man's kart's

[bighead]

ya, I could por15 ... then Army green .....

You might try that T-man. If done while the por15 is semi tacky with slight finger drag the green may bond with the black like black top coat does. If you wated till the por15 was dry the green would scratch off like if you painted your kitchen sink green.

I have never tried this using others colors besides black.

POR15 tip # 135

Never paint from the can if you want to save some for shelf life. Once your brush hit the can moisture takes over.
POR15 tip # 12

Never shake the can. Air bubbles are not good. You can swirl but do not shake.


POR15 tip #67

Drill two small holes in your can. drain what you need out into cup. Then seal the holes with screws and o-rings Put can in baggy and store in the fridge UPSIDE DOWN. When using the can again. Drill two more holes on the other end of the can. This way your paint will last long time. And you will not have to deal with the skin that por15 will make.

Small starter kits you will not have to worry. But if you have the 1/2 pint and pint you may consider this.

POR15 STARTER KIT TIP #1

The first coat should look like crap. If the first coat looks good your doing it wrong and using to much paint to make a starter kit last. This goes for both starter kit and non starter kit. Just more more more so with the starter kit.

If you go waaaaaay back to the first page, you will see Tman was advertising his plans for the batmobile kart.

 

[T-man]

[redsox985]

Clearly Nyan Cat (nothing but THE ORIGINAL) was for your daughter and being a great, self-sacrificing father, you willingly played it for her without thinking of the inherent risk to your masculinity!

T-Man what are your plans with the batmobile? Will it ride again?

 

[T-man]

OH YA it will, I'm just focusing on other things right now.

 

[T-man]

hey big, things sound good. Email me what the shipping would be.

side steped the trike / quad build and started working on a small trailer that the kids can ride on. be doing the video soon.

 

[Bluethunder3320]

Thats great T-man. I will work on it soon. I would look into the bar you need first though. I am sure you can find them but I have not looked yet.

Your going to have a cool front end on this kart. Perfect for your DIY viewers. Parts are morre than easy and cheap to get. it will also be so so nice to have all the hard stuff done before you even start. Now that does not happen often. If you make the main bar the same lenth as the ody. everything should work like a good fitting glove.

I will mess around with shipping options. Perhaps I can get all the heavy parts in a $14 flate rate box. Then just ship wheels, tires and shaft and column in another box. or all togather. We will see what works best.

Do you want me to break the beads on the tires before shipping? The wheels will need painted for sure. Two peace wheels so easy tire change as well.

 

[T-man]

ok that sounds good, if the beads were broke it would be easeyer. I m sure I'll be able to fab the front end for this easyly. I was wondering , on the ody, do the tierods drop below the the frams and floor pans?

Yep they do. But they have a skid plate that protects them. They also point down some. Not really below it but below it if that makes since at all. Use your Ody shocks for there made for the setup. About 3" of travel. Then you have the baloon style tires as well.

 

[T-man]

ok sure.
I'm tring to find the link so I can figure what my top speed should be.
