this already exists, but anyway ill do it again
also u should have broken the age brackets up more cause u are going to get a butt load in the 12 -19 age group where as some are 12 and some are 18-19

 

[Bluethunder3320]

ya the last 6 people were 12-19

 

[redsox985]

Fowler, can I edit it? I looked around but couldn't find it. I did find the other thread for ages but it wasn't a poll I wanted a nice graph and percentages. Breaking it down more would have made sense in retrospect, but I think it's too late. Anyways, we can see that a large majority of us, so far, are under 20, which is pretty young to be building karts and blogging daily about it.

have you pressed the "go advanced" button yet? i doubt they will let you change it.

 

[redsox985]

It's still better than a name with a number under it. Don't tell anyone.

 

[r97]

It's not very anonymous when it tells you who voted for what . Next time tick the anonymous poll box.

Thanks

There is no option for under 12

 

[Flexibel_kampfe]

Lol... that 12-19 should be broken up more... 12-14. 15-17, as well as 18-19..

Kieran... if they're that young, then they shouldn't be building karts... I wouldnt trust a kid with a welder, a grinder(they can kick pretty bad..), or other tools... just too dam dangerous.. Let alone the driving aspect...

That's why us fathers supervise! Belonging to a forum is a different thing.

 

[Flexibel_kampfe]

Thats good.. unless you have a father(ie: myself) that cannot cut a piece of wood square with a MITRE SAW, let alone tack weld up a buggy...

Me... I learn everything myself... Yes, I have nearly taken my eye out, and darn near cut my leg off when the circular saw started to kick... But alas, I am still, currently, in one piece...

The good thing about welding is, that you get a sun tan all year round... only paying the price of consumables(Ie 1 welding stick..)

I really though I did because I wanted to make it anonymous. Maybe it didn't work or maybe it got unchecked but I did look for it and select it.

Free farmers tan!

Free farmers tan!

Tans are overrated. I got ma summer farmers tan and it takes me all winter to get rid of it. I'm too dark.

 

[redsox985]

I just get t shirt sleeves burn when I weld a lot. Does anyone else just weld in a t shirt, no gloves, shorts/jeans, and running shoes? (whatever I wear to school)

I do. I even wear loose skate shoes, so the toung of the shoe funnels sparks to my foot. I have a nice welding jacket that I got from Northern a while ago, but its too hot in the summer for it. If I do ever wear gloves, there just some goat skin work gloves that offer little protection from heat.

 

[MacfarlaneRacers]

Under 12s ?? lol

Under 12s ?? lol

One of my sons just turned 11, and helps out with the kart all of the time. There were some things that I needed that extra pair of hands with, and if he was not there, would not have gotten done!

He is not on the forum, though; if that's what you meant...
