    Dust management for the hobbiest

    I am talking large amounts of dust. Sanding a mostly flat surface to prep for paint with a vacuum disc is manageable. Grinding out large areas of damage and prepping them for new glass generates a bunch of dust. High speed grinders, discs on die grinders and other tools for these not flat...

    Possible toy hauler

    This is NOT mine. It could make a good toy hauler for a stand up. https://tampa.craigslist.org/pnl/for/d/clearwater-mickey-mouse-statue/6981867570.html

    Banner / ad changes

    Are the banners and ads suppose to be showing up in the sub forums on the same lines as the topics? This change seems to have just occurred and does not appear to be a positive one. I'm now seeing banners on the same lines as the post topics and some of the banners are quite large, completely...

    eGPU

    I found a used eGPU on craigslist so I went ahead and got it. I have believed eGPU are the future for a while now and they are finally catching on which is pretty exciting. This is my macbook pro https://support.apple.com/kb/SP719?locale=en_US with the 2.2 ghz quad. This is the eGPU I got...

    Good video on CAD hardware

    A while back I was asking about hardware for CAD. Here is a really good video that answers all of those questions (although my question was regarding laptops.) Linus Tech Tips and TechQuickie (same guy, shorter videos) have some pretty good videos.

    Spark opinions

    Looking for opinions on ride and reliability from people who own/ed a standup or B1 and a Spark. My buddy currently owns a X2 and is considering the Spark. He has not liked any of my standups (650sx, SJ, SXR) but does like the X2 and B1. We've also over the years owned B2, both versions of the...

    B1 rear deck access hole ?

    It is very common for the B1 to separate at the rear bond line. The access hole most people cut for this repair is pretty standard. The separation happens, in my opinion, because of a design flaw in the rear bond rail. This should no longer be an issue after a proper repair job. Typically the...

    Starting issue

    My superjet is running great, but it it stops running, it won't start again until it has sat for a few minutes, then it starts right up. It will crank the whole time but won't start until it has sat. Tried a few simple things on the beach. Carbs are spotless both sides. New plugs. Made sure...

    2017 test ride request

    Hoping to maybe test ride a rickter, freak and fixsteer superjet this year. Preferably 701 B-pipe motors since that is what I own. Also never ridden a Gen 2 X2. Happy to throw down some gas money, just let me know the amount. As always, I respect the risk you are taking by letting someone ride...

    Baby Jet

    We are about to embark on an amazing adventure to waste an absurd amount of time and money to introduce a little lady into a sport she can't even yet comprehend... Initial measurements and sketches were taken from her walker onto PEG board. The wheels for this were salvaged from a jogging stroller.
