for someone who knows more about engines then I do. for a basic gokart engine lets say 212 pred or what ever. could you run a supercharger off the main crank? I can't see why one couldn't. but maybe there's something I'm missing. Also I've wondered as well, has there been any successful fuel...

I'm in the market for a buttpad for my motorcycle. :lolgoku: But I'm thinking.. I can either "buy" a pre-made buttpad or I can just order a sheepskin pelt online and just cut my own. the sheep skin would cost about the same amount as a pre-made pad and I could cover my WHOLE seat. since my...

anyone know where to get some dolly wheels? I want to roll my table saw around outside, but its a huge cast iron top and steel body. and casters on the bottom causes it to slide too much when plywood or long pieces of wood are put through it. I checked the big box stores, and all their wheels...

so me and some friends been doing a lot of off roading lately, trucks/cars/gokarts anything with a seat. we're having problems with the passangers getting what we've dubbed sandbacks. [lots of loose sand in florida] basically our lower backs are getting wrecked from all the sliding and tossing...

So here's a bit of a story, I was making wooden rings on the side, to make a little extra cash. they where selling pretty good so I kept doing it. well there's this particular kid who bought some from me. well it was a pretty good sale 80 bucks, and I promised to make him a special order, so he...

I'm not sure if this will be sound enough.. my current workbench is at the end of its life. cutting things on top of it, is annoying, at best. its mostly for general use, some wood working, the picture doesn't show all the joinery and mounting hardware. Just wondering if it will be stable, or...

alright, well last night I think a welding tank fell off someones truck, it was laying in the middle of the road, so I picked it up. today I managed to get the cap off with only slight damage.. [had to cut a slight slot in it with a hacksaw to relieve some of the tension in the cap, it still...

So pictures related, My accident. I'm okay, was "low speed" only a skinned need, hospital checked me out. I was cleared.. here's what happen from my perspective. the public transport known as Lynx around here, was in front. I think they didn't see anyone at the bus stop until the last minute...
