Norcal Spotted and BS Thread

Especially all the bandwagoners, never seen so many giants fans until they won the WS.

 

I'm a bathed in the Bay Giants fan. My grandma was a diehard A's fan. Watching baseball with her was always a hoot. She had a room in her house dedicated to A's merchandise.

 

ive been doing more research online and yeah apparently there are some other places for under 1600, gotta make phone calls tomorow.
im just trying to avoid the ghetto

 

Awesome! Thanks Brian!

 

Any ideas here?

 

The bends should be easy. Cut a "v" then using a piece of wood, push down. How you cut the "v" "\|" or "|/" or some where in between will determine the angle of the bend.

It looks like the image came from MetalsDepot. Just pick the nearest thing.

 

You mean making a cut into the legs right? And then would you weld it after making the cut and bending it?

I looked there and they didn't have anything very close. The smallest 6061 channel was 2" in base length with 1" legs and the only 1.25" base length 6063 channel has 1.25" legs.
I'd like to explore around to see if I can get something that's almost the same before resorting to different dimensions.

 

Yes. Make a small cut, bend away and then weld it.

Maybe this from Metals Depot or this from Coltwell.

 

Ok cool, thanks! I'll have to see if I can find someone to do the welding part.

I think the closest thing in metals depot is that 6063 1.5x.5x1/8 channel, but I'll have to see if that width will fit on the actual shell.
Thanks for the Coltwell link! They have something that is closer and is the 6061 channel, so I may request a quote from them. It also looks like they may be able to do the bends in-house, so I'll have to ask about that.

Anyone know any places locally that have a wide variety in aluminum channel? I did a quick google search and got a few places in sacramento but they either don't have a website or don't have channeling...

 

Havent missed Opening day since this park opened

 

Have any of you guys heard of rubber going bad in our driveshafts? I called a driveline place today and the guy said he could replace my u joint and balance my driveshaft for $60 as long as the rubber wasn't bad. I had never heard of that before. BTW is the $60 a good price?

 

Did you try Blue Collar Supply in Sac?

 

They are probably talking about the CB and or boot

 

You didn't get any pics of us flying over? Those pics were from the C-130
