    Other What did you fab up today? A thread for the home fabricators!

    To the untrained eye, this would look like part of an ongoing effort to restore my toy hauler to better than original condition, but you guys know me better, and thus realize this is part of my life’s work to convince @OCD Solutions that he needs a 3D printer. Sent from my iPhone using...

    @OCD Solutions Mill converted to 3D printer... It looks like his spindle is still in place so it's still a mill when it's not a printer. 3d printer add on for plasma table (this would probably be similar for my router, but I know you want a plasma table). Maybe there are some good options...

    What is special about it? I have a CR10 S5. Quality is not impressive and it's finicky but it works okay for a 500mm^3 build volume for $500.

    I was thinking about building a better quality and larger 3D printer. I have a 24x36 KL series router. The Z-axis is only 4" and would be a bit less with a glass bed on it, but I was thinking, this is an amazing base for a large format 3d printer. It wouldn't be very hard for me to swap out the...

    Kawasaki Yamaha jet pump relining

    Scott from Exactal Tool did this service on my Kawi 650 pump years ago. I would definitely recommend them. Great so hear they are still available for this job.

    Apple AirTag for ski tracking

    I used a Tag pet tracker for my dog for a while. It is a subscription service. Could work for a ski.

    Going fast body pos

    You can try rear sponsons as well. Ride plates help with pitch. Front Sponsons help with roll and rear sponsons help with Yaw, if that makes sense. Rear sponsons are easy to make. You can use cutting board material, lexan, star board, layup some fiberglass on something flat, etc. I made mine by...

    Going fast body pos

    I usually ride Lake Seminole in Pinellas county. I haven't been riding much but I hope to get some more time on the water or dirt once I finish restoring my toy hauler. Hopefully once I get that fixed up I can make my way up to Ocala. But don't let my post think you can learn anything from me...

    Going fast body pos

    Full disclaimer, I suck and am a terrible source of advice. With that said, they are both right. Staying up keeps you more relaxed and reduces fatigue and takes stress off your back. Staying in an aggressive position when you do not need to be increases fatigue and increases the chance of a...

    First post, looking to have flywheel lightened by #zero

    He was local to me but his number was no longer in service a bit back when I tried to reach out to him after people were saying they hadn't heard from him.

    Nice work. I have watched every X2 thread for probably over a decade and that is the first stock 700 exhaust I have seen in a X2.

    Super Jet Gas fumes

    Edit: short version, what BK said. Longer explanation below if you’re interested. Yes. the volume of fuel decreases as your motor runs. This would create a vacuum in your tank if air were not allowed in. The negative pressure would starve your motor of fuel. The one way is suppose to let air...

    Yamaha superjet solenoid clicking

    I know it's common to ground the starter at the starter mounting bolt, but I ground mine to a bolt on the flywheel cover. Cable is less than a foot and easy to replace.

    Milk jugs are for torque. Mountain dew bottles give the ponies. Not as much as a ProTec sticker does though. The science checks out.

    Other What did you fab up today? A thread for the home fabricators!

    I don't have a picture, but the first year I went to daytona with my X2, I kept having water ingestion. I had a K&N style arrestor that came on my X2. @tom21 helped me cut up a 2L mountain dew bottle and with a propane torch, he heat shrunk it around to cover 3 sides leaving only the motor side...
