    "B" Stock

    I was just starting to wonder about the Sun. I have a habit of leaving the skis uncovered all the time in the yard. I dont care about fading, but If the turf is going to harden up or something maybe I ought to get a cover..

    Another hydroturf question

    Read the directions too.. There are temp requirements, like hold over 65 for 48 hours. Dont put into service for some days, etc. I'm sure it doesn't fall right off if you cut a corner, but I figure they tell you those kind of things for a reason. Oh and one thing I don't think I've ever seen...

    Real Metal Coatings, revisited

    Anybody know what it really is? Surely not a "new alloy" as they say. Probably some metal loaded polymer I'd guess.

    air compressor and tools

    Many (most?) of them are convertable, so for example if you dont have 220 in your garage you can hook up 110 and upgrade the wiring later. I've been managing with a 110 unit for years. Portabiltiy is nice. Downside, I can not run grinders and such continuously, you have to work a minute, let the...

    Sponsons install???

    The proper size are the biggest ones that will fit sung in the hole. They are cheap , go buy a bunch and see what works. One of the problems with pop rivets is by the time you drill them out the holes have worn and are too big, so you may need to go up a size from the original anyway, or epoxy...

    Sponsons install???

    a) can't you get inside there to use machine screws. (I hate pop rivets!) b) I think if you also seal the entire thing to the hull with 5200 or epoxy you will take care of the leakage. Actually I bet you could just bond them on without fasteners through the hull at all. (That is depending on...

    freeride helmet

    Just my $.02, but i've started wearing a helmet after slaming my jaw into into the chin pad a few times (and then counting teeth, lucky so far). Now I wouldn't bother with a helmet without a chin guard.

    goofy foot foothold

    I ride one foot forward one back most of the time and that still looks awkward to me..It is good to see people trying new stuff though. Are you making a hold for the front?

    5200

    My guess is you didn't get the surface clean enough. Even the slow cure should have set enough in two days that it shouldn't 'fall off'. Heads up by the way, Home Depot has the 5200 caulk gun tubes on close out sale. (I think I heard 3m is discontinuing the large tubes.) Note that you need to...

    Reed cage seal

    it wont give you a lean condition like a leak, but it might behave like a reed that isn't sealing.
