    doing a pork loin topped with bacon and rosemary/parmesan potatoes to keep my strength up while doing bike stuff.

    Old plug wires were def original, and not what I would call pliable anymore, plus a bit of scarring from something.

    Pretty. Exact length too.

    new brake pedal, twice the size of the stock one that was losing it's rubber. Won't have to search for it now.

    will post finished pics of my loin when it's ready.:D

    It's crazy the markup!

    "Josh shared that his Lavabox comes in three sizes, but the most popular is the smaller version which retails for $195. The landed production cost is just above $25 per unit".

    I mean you have to take employees, rent/storage/inventory, web design and such into consideration plus the little fold out stand but still a crazy mark up! How long did it take you to build this? I’m thinking it’ll probably take less than an hour.

    I've put a minimal amount of effort into finding this on the forum. Off the top of my head I think the cv axle nut is torque to 205ft/lbs? Can anyone confirm?

    Edit. 175 like all the other generations. I finished doing the homework

    More like in-between the cvshaft and coilover? But the shaft isn't even a little bit scratched. Maybe that's just Aluminum vs steel tho?

    Repairing/rehanging 8' door on Discovery Center, the wet spot is from an entire can of wasp killer sprayed inside the door. Was removing the closer at the top, felt something tickle my hand and had about 87 of the little bastards swarm my ass.
    This was supposed to be a 90 minute job and took 4 hours and 20 minutes due to an 8' long by 1/4" ridge on the edge of the door that had to be ground off.
    Fuck you Monday.

    But I got it done and the kids museum is secured once again. At least it was on the shady side, so i had that going for me.

    Is that what they mean when they say a door has a honeycomb core?
