There has been lots of discussion on this topic, so rehashing everything is kind of :horse::horse::horse: BUT recently I had made a post with my spindles and was shot down by its angles. Now I have had several people point me to THIS site for geometry of Castor, Camber and Acker. Quote on...

Anyone have some advice on the tools used to roll threads onto rod stock for nuts to fit on? Pipe threaders I dont think will work, the threads are different. Matthew

Dang those are nice! That Rage 3 is perfect, $400 though... I guess if I had seen something like that before I bought my band saw I could get one.

Also, as far as the crotch rocket motor. If you look at dune buggy sites they do make a gear case that allows you to have reverse, I am sure it could be figured out how to swap it over. That way you would have a nice powerful water cooled motor and it would scream if you wanted it to.

Wow that thing is AWESOME! Would love to have something like that! GREAT Find! I wonder if an old Saab 63 engine would work? My brother just sold his but I think there might be a lot more parts for the Saab motors. Matthew

Very nice!!! Its nice to bring home a new baby! Lol

THIS is what I use to remove paint. Put it on with a cheap foam brush from Walmart and let it set for 20 minutes. I used to use this when rebuilding bikes and it would take it all the way to the metal, including emblems, in about 10 minutes. You just let it sit and wipe it off. Amazing stuff...

The best ways are to... 1. Find one on Craigslist or some other local classified adds 2. Find someone to build you a frame and you put the rest together 3. Buy a kit and put it all together. (You will need a welder and other tools) Like Jeremy said, where are you located? That will make a...

Lol whatever it is, its a HUGE hunk of steel!

Yeah it snaps easy, but also kinks easy in the the feeder. Watch your feeder so that it isnt in tight coils with this big of wire or it likes to jam up. I used the Lincoln .035 till I got my tank. It is decent wire, and a lot better than others I have used in the past. Matthew

I wouldnt buy the stuff from Tractor Supply, they are junk even with a lifetime warranty. To be honest some of the best tools I have used are Stanley Proto hand tools. They carry a lifetime warranty, MANY different places carry them. I used to have all Popular Mechanics tools, they are great...

Awesome! Thank you for the info! It seems to me the roller guide behind the blade where it comes back to the drive is a bad design. I cant see any adjustment available and it has a SERIOUS gap between the blade and roller. If I just turn the saw on, it will run and blade not come off, as soon as...

Austin you get on this thing yet to see if the 10 inches have been enough for a person your height? And how tall are you? Matthew

Yeah I had it cranked down. I noticed the pulleys/wheels/ whatever you want to call them, are really rough. Like they painted over rust or something and it has large bumps.

Yeah the forum drank too much and ended up in bed with a shemale now it is all FUBAR. LoL

Wow forum really screwed up. It just put your last message in the middle of all the other ones. Haha

Hey Briggs, the PM system is screwed up and it wont let me send anything. Shoot me an email at the address I sent you.

And the PM system says I cant send one for 60,000 more seconds?? Rofl

I bought that band saw about 2 weeks ago. I got to cut 4 pieces of tubing and the band twisted. Not sure if I had the spring pulling it too tight or what but it pops off as soon as it touches material now. I can leave it running in a free state for 20 minutes and it will stay on the track but as...

Its used for forming molds. I bought it cuz it us cheap and easy to cut plus it doesn't add a bunch of weight.
