    3D Hull scan for giant 3d printer.

    I honestly think it's one of those thing you would only want to do once , just to say you did it , to be profitable it has to be scalable and this industry is too small and is there are way too many options out there right now , the amount of capitol it would take to make a hull building...

    X2 Radar run

    650's can really go with the right porting, compression and bolt on parts, the one in my little 300SX absolutely screams.

    She came across as a bought and paid for spokesperson, at least that's the way it looked to me, I wasn't impressed .

    Here is the thing and Waxhead has said this numerous times , it is not a question of whether or not the Chinese can make quality components , without a doubt they can , and without a doubt that is where SBT components are being made. It is all about the specs they are given to build the...

    S1 Podcast, SBT Background Video

    I might as well be from Missouri because after all of my previous dealings with SBT products they are going to have to SHOW ME before I believe . Show me starters that last more than a season, show me starter clutches that don't grenade taking stators out along with them , show me stators and...

    There is a reason Ford, Chevrolet and Dodge all make vehicles , one seat does not fit everyone's fat a$$ .

    It's official crazy season has begun

    Each year I wonder when crazy season will start , this year that day is today . This morning I get a text from a longtime customer with a GTX RFI , I installed a electronic flow control valve on his ski last year because the inner crankshaft seals are bad, apparently that fix worked well and I...

    USC Garage SMC Filler and Gel Coat

    2.5 tip should work as with any gun and tip you will have to thin it till it sprays regardless of what the gelcoat mfg reccomends . Just keep in mind not to mix more than you can shoot , after you add catalyst you only have about 10-15 minutes to empty the gun and clean the gun out or you end...

    Microballoon Pinholes

    One more trick I will throw out there , when you have pinholes like that mix up your primer and roll it on with a small foam paint roller instead of spraying it , it works itself into the pinholes that way and yes it will require a bit more sanding but it's primer , it sands very easily . You...

    the trivial complaints thread

    Next rant USPS , I am sure I don't really need to elaborate but WTF , is there a more incompetently run mega shipping business than USPS ? Constant updating of delivery dates, rest assure it absolutely positively won't be there overnight , but it won't be there anywhere near the scheduled...

    Microballoon Pinholes

    Yes but hard core filling only , cabosil is a total b!tch to sand and it doesn't feather out nicely like microballoons do . One trick I use with microballoons filler is to mix it up soupy and paint it on with a chip brush , in thinner coats like that you don't get nearly as many pinholes , so...

    USC Garage SMC Filler and Gel Coat

    The best tip I can give you on shooting gelcoat is to use either Smoothie additive or mix the last few coats with Duratec clear, either will cut sanding time in at least half, patch aid is also a product I use sometimes. If you are just spraying gelcoat make sure it has the wax additive in the...

    USC Garage SMC Filler and Gel Coat

    The whole myth about gelcoat not sticking to polyester and epoxy is bogus , yes you won't get a chemical bond , but if you do it right you will get a mechanical bond which means you need to leave the surface rough enough to create that bond, I like to use 80 grit as my final sanding before...

    Microballoon Pinholes

    ok fill them with primer then, that's kinda what it is for , you will always have pinholes with epoxy-micro balloons filler because of the outgassing of the epoxy.
