I wasn't to sure if youtube was going to mute the video, luckily I messed aroung with the audio before uploading it so their recognition software wouldn't catch it. it was a gamble ... but it looks like it worked

 

[Blazkowiez]

Bro, I think a few of the cuts in the video come out a bit creepy, not really because you said anything wrong but if thats the first video they watch they may get the wrong idea about what you're building.

Production quality was really good though.

 

[T-man]

LOL ya. " the voices in my head told me to make more sharp stuff " Ha ha. That was part of a video that I put out last year for halloween. It was only up for two weeks as a happy halloween thingyy. what you think of the music?

 

[T-man]

hey guys : just wondering. would you all consider what I do here by posting my videos as spamming ?

 

[Rustydog2010]

Yes. :ninja:

Nah, I dont see anything wrong with it. Maybe if they were totally off topic, but most of them are on the topic of gokarts.
Plus they are normally a good laugh. Im sure if someone had a problem they would have said so?

Keep at it!

Jeremy.

Don't give up T-Man. Stay focused and think things thru.

So what do you think the real reason they are blacklisting you is? What do you have to do to qualify for a partner? And have you done that?

 

[T-man]

yes I have. I have complied with everything ... even more. There is alot that I have don off video. There is no legitamet reason. There is a problem that is with my account , some glitch and they (YT) have no way to explain it so instead of fixing it they would rather make up a reason not to make me a partner. I could list everything that is behind what I have don but it would take up a whole page and a lot of mis-spellings
and I am trying to think of a way to somehow make them regret it. My mind is spinning. This is not right. I dont deserve this.
I could understand it if I was going out and bad mouthing peoples builds or talkin crap about others. I just dont do that. I try to be helpfull ( except when it comes to engines, I'm a half wit) I got lucky with the Bat, so sometimes I use that to help others get noticed.
I dont know why this karma came on me ..... Rrrr

I do not think this is your best option yet. Just play it cool friend.

 

[T-man]

sure will.

 

[anderkart]

Geez thanks T-man, that's a super cool offer.

I dont know anything about your youtube thang but you dont need to give me any of yer gear man. I enjoy helping and already have everything I need. (you never know, you might need-em to get yer pirate station going again some day) However I'm really into tube gear, If you should happen to stumble across any spare/usable 6550, KT88, EL34, 6L6, 12AX7, 12AU7 or 12AT7 vacuum tubes from your shortwave sources...

 

[T-man]

ok, I'll keep my eyes open for them tubes. back in the day I use to have about 10 6kd6 tubes , they are known as sweep tubes . used alot in older TVs awesome for sideband amplifiers.

But anyways In this video I was trying to make changing the tred off of some rims look easy buuuut it didn't turn out that way.

tman, keep it up. I watched the long video top to bottom. if you haven't been spamming keep it up you'll get in. sucks about the issues!

 

[bighead]

T-man, I was watching one of your vids. (questions and Answers) You said you were looking for a sled engine. I have a nice 70's Rupp 340cc Twin cylinder 30hp fan cooled engine. I would be willing to donate to the cause. Just pay shipping.

It has an exhaust set up as well. I got this motor on an Odyssey project I bought. When I got the motor the stator was out. I found all the stator parts in a parts box.I was able to put it all back together. I dumped a little gas in the spark flug hole and it fired.

I have not ran the engine though. It has a really nice carb and a very nice clutch. All you would need is a sled drivin clutch on a jack shaft and your ready to go. The only thing it needs is some spark plug boots. I just wraped the wire around the plug to see if it would fire.

Here are some pics of the motor. The pipe should be facing the other way. I do have both pipes. Also the fan shroud on this motor would be sick pollished. Basically you would have a pollished engine without polishing all the cooling fins. The exhaust chamber would be at your seat back. The pipes would shoot right out the back of the batmobile. This set up was in and FL250 Odyssey. No ES though.

Shipping from Portland Oregon. Oregon to Montana might not be to bad.

I do have the screen cover to cover the fan belt above the pull starter. Compression test was 135 and 140 if I remember right. If you wanted this I would run some gas thru it and see how it runs on the bench before shipping. I can put it on ebay for a penny just for you. This way everything is ligit. I think with my engine it would save you money in the long run. You kill a lot of birds with one stone here. Your main problem would be a sled splinned drivin clutch and mating it to a jack shaft. Most sled drivin clutches I seen are splined shafts.

Also if you do buy a complete sled someday. Check out this thread. Killdozer used the whole sled drive. This would be a rock solid setup in any rig.

Notice how he cut the bottom out of the sled for his motor mounts? All factory alighment too. I really like it. No messing with belt alighment during building.

tman, keep posting here! search for DIY go karts on google, some picures of your bat mobile cart come up. i watch your vids too, they are pretty cool!

 

[T-man]

ya blue thanks , Ive seen your videos to . the last one I saw was the one that showed the engine fell out of you bike while you were driving.

 

[Blazkowiez]

Responding to the tire video, you need to focus on placing one side of the tire into the inside of the main cavity of the rim when you're working the 2 screwdrivers back and forth, also if you're trashing the tire, cut a small hole to slip the screwdriver in close to the inside of the rim and pull it off the bead (literally).

As far as the screwdrivers go, buy about 5 of these... you won't regret the purchase. They're usually in the dollar bin at the store and not 2 bucks like it says on the site.

Past that, you need to consider building a post that you can slide wheels over, that will make your life much much easier.

 

[T-man]

Blaz, those are exactly the screw drivers I need to get. I guess I could have drilled a simple hole in the floor and stuck in some re-rod and put the wheel on there, at least ti would have been held in placed.
