Budget DIY introduction

[Budget DIY]

Hi all, I'm an older poor crazy person from the Netherlands. Have watched loads of "cars and camera's" vids on Youtube. I enjoy crazy ideas and concepts. Got a bunch of lawnmower engines (all B&S after I threw some away/lack of space), and I've also hoarded a few small 2-smoke outboard engines. Got an abandoned motorized bicycle project, which I want to bring back to life with the usage of a turbo.

Other then that, I've also made my own e-bicycle with "crazy range and performance", and I've got a massive (to me at least) steel boat project going on.

Not sure how active I'll be on here, since I'm mostly a Discord user.

I came here for some specific small engine questions. That particular engine isn't even mounted to a gokarts, although it does at least fit the theme. All my other projects are kinda totally unrelated. Already posted a question about that small engine, before I created this intro.

Dont discount our desperate need for useless and unrelated pictures. A couple of us will stare at a picture of a beat up, 50 year old engine for an hour, drooling.

We might even check out a picture gallery from your discord...

Welcome btw.

I am wondering, cannot Discord fulfill all your needs (questions, advice)? I think I registered there once...

I didn't even know Discord had a picture gallery. Might eventually one day maybe look into that. And hmmmz... Maybe some people will drool over my Mercedes OM636 engine.

Yesn't. Gotta find the correct server which isn't dead, that contains the people with the correct knowledge. And that can be slightly hard at times. I also used AI, but I found that it isn't reliable at all. Especially when I ask it to provide actual store links for parts. That just does NOT work.
