I'm Back...been a while

[jman231994]

Hey everyone,

I believe its been almost a year since I was last on here posting, uni became a bit too distracting for me to keep at it. I've been checking out some projects on here every now but other than that it would be close to a year I reckon.

Anyway, I've started a new project and figure you guys would be interested in a build log as I go. It's going to be something very similar to an Edge Taipan, except I've got 1/4 of a mechanical engineering degree now so I felt like designing it myself haha.

I'll start a build log in the next day or two with some photos of how the frame is progressing and some screenshots of the cad model etc..... 30+ degree days over here arent exactly enticing me to get work done though

See you all around

I've got 1/4 of a mechanical engineering degree

Now- does this mean that 1/4 of your project will be well-engineered, or that you'll only be building 25% of a buggy?

Welcome back!

^^ I giggled.

Welcome back... although, I wasn't even a member yet before you left. Now, I'm like the most prolific member.

I'm also full of ****.

Look forward to your 1/4 engineered kart.

>smile goes here<

Haha knowing me it will never get finished...I'll just keep finding excuses to keep changing things.....so probably both lol

Welcome back J; there's a few really cool new members & a lot has happened since we last saw you...

This weather is disgusting isn't it? Should've seen it coming when it snowed in Texas...

So, you're studying engineering, good on you Can't wait to see the build

Is not it suppose to be summer time down under? He77 with the weather were having up here in NE Indiana I'd take 30 degree's.

35° CELCIUS! Last time I checked, that's mid 90s Fahrenheit

At least we get a couple of days reprieve for christmas, then back up to mid 30s for the weekend...

Drooling is an over statement. 5 degrees (4.1C) here this morning.

Sorry guys, I'm out of the groove and forgot to check back haha

Yea I'd take 5 degrees any day....rig up some nice halogen lights and its perfect welding conditions Never get too hot or sweaty

And yea fabroman this rain is wonderful haha, I dont just turn around every time I walk outside haha
