    Weld a hole closed to drill and tap?

    If it was me, I’d try and set OCD to the side and nutsert it and run it. Even if it’s a 1/4” off it’s not going to matter for a bumpstop pad.

    Diamond cutting disc

    Has anyone tried one of these type cutting wheels on thicker materials? When I was finishing my shop in an existing pole barn I was too cheap to buy a nibbler for one time use, so I put one of these in my grinder and cut 100’s of feet of steel siding with it when abrasives barely lasted 10...

    Any fellow smokers here?

    I’ve had a lot of different smokers over the years and the Masterbuilt gravity is my favorite. Gives the flavor of a traditional offset with damn near the convenience of a pellet grill. I’ve about wore this one out, been loosely keeping an eye out for sales on a new one.

    For all of us with two wheels also

    Already did on a, what I thought was moderate, 1-2 shift. The thing sounds really cool in the upper rpm’s. Gauges are kind of cloudy so couldn’t really tell with my crappy eyes what it was taching but I hit the limiter in 2nd. Definitely looking forward to hitting the twisties with it.

    The powerband is definitely different than the Harley’s. It has a pretty good midrange hit and pulls hard at the top. Wasn’t really expecting that.

    I did take it for a spin, but if I want to ride straight roads I’ll ride the rolling recliner, not hunched in the fetal position. The canyons, even if they are bare of snow, have too much sand on the road until a good spring rain at this point.

    She’s a runner! New fuel pump and rebuilt injectors. Now it just needs to be spring!

    Kelly Flats 2025

    None in Lefthand Canyon, it’s been closed since the floods and they closed the fun part known as Carnage Canyon probably 15-20 years ago.

    Colorado Krew Hangout

    Wouldn’t worry about it too much. The fact you already own a home in this crazy economic environment and at your age, you’re already ahead.

    What did you do to / in your garage / shop today?

    Leave a door cracked, the amount of moisture those put out is impressive.

    The Silver Fox LJ Build

    Looking back at my pics I honestly can’t remember how I did it, but definitely a different approach than yours. I must have just added flat stock to the bottom. Only pics I have is going from this: To this:

    Colorado Krew Hangout

    It’s been a long time since I’ve listened to him, but I thought he was ok with the 10 or 15 year fixed? Trevor, you didn’t do a 30 did you!?!?! Uncle Dave may be disappointed. :ROFLMAO: All I know is I have a 30 fixed at under 3% and I’ll never pay a penny over minimum. Going to let that...

    The Silver Fox LJ Build

    Well, I bet yours will have factory radiuses on the edges and be perfect. 4” frame all the way is the only thing mine has going for it and I showed you the second side! :ROFLMAO:

    The Silver Fox LJ Build

    I love your attention to detail and patience. I’m more of the good enough, close enough, get it done and back on the trail type patience which as they say makes a good 10 footer, not a close up looker. I agree though, the frame tuck on an LJ is smokin, here’s my hack job.

    The Saga Continues…

    No, you seem to be missing the angle at play here. Tell me how all this mindless bantering below lives up to your last paragraph above. Hypocrisy and narcissism have no limits.

    The Saga Continues…

    Someone’s suggestion to wish someone well some how chastises you? Again, I think you need to look up the definition of what that means.

    The Saga Continues…

    Chastising others? Pot/kettle? Did you even read gasiorv’s post? He said nothing chastising of the sort, just giving examples of people’s goals. You and a few others are the only ones making personal accusations and assumptions about his intent that has nothing to do with the build or his...
