    How many swim noodles?

    I was planning on doing the sink test on my new BAM in my pool once I open it. Was thinking I'd use a 701 and block off the intake. Even if water gets in through the pipe, it won't hurt a fogged engine all that much. I'd have it cleared out and running again within a few minutes. I'd like to...

    Other Movie review thread

    I like the idea, but it was too much singing for me. Palm Springs was good. Disney+ suddenly got really good with the new Star section. Loads of good TV and movies. I'd say it's almost comparable to Netflix now.

    Apple AirTag for ski tracking

    I see a couple downsides to that. Mainly battery life and it’s not very discreet. I guess you could run a charger from the ski battery

    Apple AirTag for ski tracking

    I just did some reading about the AirTag. The downside for anti-theft is that if the tag detects that it's traveling with someone new, it will alert that person, and they can turn it off with their phone. That's so nobody can slip it onto a random person to track them. So if the thief has an...

    SBT buys out Hydro-turf and HT Moto

    Orps in Ontario carries them too. Usually a healthy supply, but last time I was there they were complaining about how long it takes for new orders to arrive.

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

    Why not have an exhaust fan pulling the vapours through a filter? With the doors closed on your setup it shouldn't take a very big fan to get a negative pressure inside the enclosure.

    Dual use hitch hauler?

    Call a local metal shop and see how much a C channel would cost at the size you need. I've bought from Online Metals before too. They have their prices online.

    Painting a BOB Hull

    Does anyone use a flex additive for painting skis? I ended up with some cracks on an SJ I did maybe 10 years ago.

    Other Movie review thread

    Unhinged was totally ruined for me by loads of unrealistic scenes. My wife and I kept saying "why wouldn't you go to the police?" and "why the hell are you doing that?" followed by "this is so stupid." Russel Crow makes a very good scary assed psycho though. Any idea when the new Top Gun is...

    SOLD SOLD: DASA 1200

    Any better pictures? +16mm stroke? Does it come assembled? That top end isn't bolted on in the picture.

    Industry parts (Or lack there of)

    I agree. $650 for a manifold alone is insane. That should be the price of the entire setup. It's not like they're spending money constantly doing R&D and updates to the pipe.

    Industry parts (Or lack there of)

    Problem with those is that air can't get through if they get wet. A friend ended up poking a bunch of holes in his, because that was the only way to get his ski running properly again without removing it completely. Plus you really don't need dust filtration out on the water.

    Solostove

    I saw a similar design years ago. I've considered building my own, and still might if I shorten my to-do list. It might be a bit harder to keep going than a normal bonfire, but the burn would definitely be cleaner if you can keep it hot enough.

    Hydrogen Fuelled Toyota - It's About Freakin' Time!

    As far as solar goes, it may have its limitations, but it has recently become the cheapest source of power generation, when you look at cost of setting up and running a facility over its lifetime. I was shocked to see that, but the article I was reading had all the numbers laid out, and it's...

    Hydrogen Fuelled Toyota - It's About Freakin' Time!

    That's good to hear. They had to do something to get around having a bomb under your car. The quantity being moved is the difference. I'm thinking if all trucks hauling gas or diesel are replaced with hydrogen, the odds of an incident are way too high. Hydrogen also ignites at a much larger...

    Hydrogen Fuelled Toyota - It's About Freakin' Time!

    Creating hydrogen through electrolysis onboard uses more electricity than just running an electric motor. There was a time when I really wanted to be the one to make this technology a thing. I quickly learned about the downfalls when I started experimenting.
