    It's less Tacoma and more mod
    Or hit that equation dead in the center where there's no win and get into machining, you can make anything but the cost of entry is nuts

    I've gotta assume that's like bracket racing for short folks. You can be entirely inferior but proportionally appropriate for your size compared to a real adult.

    Nice!



    If there was not alot of ACTUAL gunk.. like gooey stuff or or hard crystalline stuff do NOT remove and replace that Welch plug. You have no way of setting it correctly with your available tools and you'll make the carb literally dump fuel

    Yea the highlights of those kinda shows inspire me, getting to work on machine tools in both operation and maintenance has proved to me I'm just dangerous enough to get myself into trouble

    The way I was taught was making my own tooling



    hopefully by the end of the year I can pull the lathe out and actually set it up proper now that there’s a place to put it... been in storage for 9 years.
