    The other project...

    This one I brought home for my boy. It was the frame with the steering and a hex axle. I cut the axle off and got a 39" keyed axle from bmikarts. I just sat back and gave him instruction and hints along the way. He mounted the disc and sprocket. Then hung the axle. I had to cut the caliper...

    Thomas mfg mechanical caliper vs. Airheart caliper

    I'm getting ready to buy a mechanical caliper for my go cart and I am wondering which caliper is the better buy. I already have an Airheart (NorthernTool) on my other cart so I know what I am getting with that one, but the Thomas Mfg caliper (bmikarts) is 15 bucks cheaper and it appears to be...

    I have a set of tires and rims off of a small quad that I am going to use for my go carts.
