    Re: Talk me out of this...

    Maybe not helpful to the current problem at hand, but I always thought a t-case brake would be cool. A little cable activated caliper on a custom bracket and a laser cut rotor on the output flange...

    I wonder if once you re-tie it if you could just dip the loops in something to lock it all in. If i had to guess their dip is probably some kind of 1 or 2 part urethane. If you could get a...

    Thanks everyone for coming out today. It turned out to be great weather...... we only got a little rain while airing up. Devil's Canyon wasn't too bad. A few concentrations of trash in a few of...

    Re: Tool question: chop vs band saw for metal

    I have a little tabletop bandsaw from Wen that's not too bad. It's slow, but a lot quieter than chop saws and a lot cleaner than an abrasive chop saw. I also made a little table that clamps in the...

    Re: Communications -what do you use?

    On 2 meter VHF that bonding strap may have more of an influence on the quality of the RF ground and your tune. For CB its probably more necessary. For folks working 20, 40, or 80 meters mobile the...

    Re: Communications -what do you use?

    Those firering / 3/8-24 threaded studs are not well suited for VHF and UHF frequencies. Unless you screw one through the center of a metal roof you're not going to get a good groundplane and it...
