    Go ahead, brag about your tractor-PLEASE!

    Yep, i want to know too much about tractors. Im thinking small, old as possible, cheap as possible and i need it to be able to lift a pallet of sod or bricks. Ill want a bucket and if it can also be like a clamshell or grapple whatever you call it. Forks, probably make a custom boom to lift...

    Dual 38 tuning advice

    Well, thats probably not it. Suction only, on a positive note the garage is fumigated and the ac is hard at work doing the rest of the house since the air handler is in the garage. Wifes gonna be mad. Next? I got parts, i got tools. I got no brains. Not sure if it helps but with the flame...

    Dual 38 tuning advice

    Superjet factory drypipe w ecwi

    Complete setup with mounts, oring, inner and outer hoses, ECWI and instructions. This has been stored in the box shipped to me by the original owner since 2012. This needs a new owner that will actually use it. It looks barely used but does have some scratches on the motor side and at the...

    2022 FX1 maybe the last one?

    On your other hull are you running a +1 ride plate? The wide rails are another ride tuning feature to counterbalance the shorter hull. Looks like you took the opposite direction and cut off what I worked hard to install and ignored the part that was intended to be cut. But it's your hull and...

    2022 FX1 maybe the last one?

    Oh and Tim, that's a 2 inch extended ride plate. That was the whole point of making the hull shorter so you could shorten the hull by shortening the plate to whatever suits your ride preference.

    2022 FX1 maybe the last one?

    In the past on the screw on tubbies I used thickened epoxy in addition to countersunk stainless steel screws. For an extra measure you might want a thin layer of cloth over onto the hull. Mine have been on forever without the layer of cloth but there is a crack between them and the hull. The...

    Custom/Hybrid Pump/ hull bench racing.

    So I've had a conversation that got me thinking. When I pump swap an fx1 there is a marked improvement. On the first hull made the owner had a spacer made and set the pump back to be able to use the sj driveshaft. I've ridden both hulls. But not back to back. I'm barely a rider so it...

    What killed the forum? How can it be revived?

    Well I just woke up an hour before dawn, not because of an alarm. No, because I'm old. Not w.f.o. old but I'm spending a large amount of time thinking about mortality. Some, sorry, most of you know what I'm talking about. I recognize almost ALL of your names. Once again I was not invited to...

    Spex Lite EPP beads for refoaming

    The only thing that might give you trouble that I can think of is the tray being weak and breaking. Might consider reinforcing it to support your weight since the foam won't be there. Not sure if plan to graft the tray back in or go full reglass with it. Just understand that the foam is...

    3.0? For spraying gelcoat.

    Stupid question time hold onto your seats everybody....could you just use your resin and a roller? Gelcoat is just resin with color and some UV inhibitors right? Well leave off the expensive additives and just run with the resin. Gonna sand the same and if you are gonna spray gelcoat over it...

    Chan ride plate

    Those plates are stupid thin. Infused would be your best best and you should really do a little reading on carbon and glass and the different weaves and what they are for to get a basic understanding of the design structure. That being said its still too thin. The great thing about that mold...

    Super Jet Dry pipe, FP Type 4 or Riva Freeride

    I didn't post that sarcastically. No new pipes. No new ecwi except for the one on greenhulk. Not saying I looked in every corner under every rock. If you have a line on one or 2 I will honestly consider my position. By the time you hunt down all the stuff ur close to where Im at. Just not as...
