I JUST talked to Art at Blackjack about this very topic for my 820 SXR engine he's building for me. I also run girdled Kommander head, FP wet pipe, Advent and will be installing RAD aluminum flywheel I asked specifically about Blackjack 44s and 46s. He said the 46s would be too big and the...

When I started out as a Mechanic I was told about crushing injuries and electrical burns because of rings. Then met a guy with a permanent burn mark around his ring finger (he's divorced now, but has a permanent "ring"). His nice conductive gold ring touched the power lead on a starter and...

LOL....not quite. Friday I built the box and sent off the engine to Blackjack and hull prep. Saturday was more prep, garage clean up in preparation to cut the glass, then a bunch of glass cutting (blisters from the shears). There are 50 individual pieces of Knytex, glass, and biax carbon just on...

Do it. Track it ALL. See what you come up with. I'd be very curious. I would think mold the seller would give you some hints on thicknesses in critical areas since he already has experience. If the mold thing doesn't work out, call up some builders and see what they would charge you for a...

Yep, lefty loosy.

Aren't you buying some molds? That somebody could be you!

He's lucky he has one of Tem's first ever Superfreak trailers on order he can tow behind him with spare gas.

Yep, I got both of these on my Comcast.

Take her to the range and let her start shooting. Hopefully she'll let the bike thing go and take up guns....something that could save her life, not cost it.

Ya, I bit off a huge bite....gonna work on precutting my glass and carbon tonight. 3 day weekend ahead of me, hoping to get the bottom hull completely glassed in one shot. While that cures, I'll be working on the top deck. Going to glass the Blowsion gunwale covers directly onto the hull...

Ya, I think someone on here weighed one in at 196lbs IIRC.

Lol...Luke, hate to break it to ya, but Mac and Jack's is in Redmond, WA. They were contracted by a pub next to the Woodland Park Zoo to make a beer with an African theme to celebrate the zoo's new lion exhibit. It took off so fast they came out with a few more African themed beers. They only...

Oh, that's what the F.M.R. comment was about on FB...ouch.

Maybe I didn't....either way, that tool is pure genius......lol.

OMG that's clean surf for that height, or for any height for that matter. Here, when we get double or triple overhead, it would be suicide to go in it.

Welcome aboard. That place has been going down hill for a long time. There is a lot of knowledge here, but it's a lower volume board, and for the most part, a lower drama board.

Good progress this weekend. I didn't like the pink foam for the bond line mold. I stripped it off, flipped the bottom deck upside down and glued it to a piece of plywood. Then measured out 3.25" and screwed a 45* cut PVC trim molding to the plywood. Then I poured 2 part foam on that. I...

Last week I bought the wife a nook color ($170) and rooted it. I made it a full functional tablet and haven't been able to put it down myself. Best part of rooting IMHO, running a firewall to keep all those apps from sharing your info.

If you have any ideas of trying flips or rolls, go Superjet. The SXR will roll with the right mods, I just can't see anyone getting one of those to flip without serious modifications to the hull and some big dollar power. That ebay SJ you posted is expensive for what it is IMHO, and still...

Don't worry about getting in trouble, that Matt_E guy is just on a power trip....:smashfreakB: Nice lightly used skis are good options. If you find something cheap and have the skills to rebuild, do it. Beware, there are plenty of over priced ski out there that also need work. My opinion...
