That little puppy ripped a shopping mall about 10 miles away to shreds.

I've never seen wind like that in my life but if I was still 12 my kite would have been UP!!!!!!!.

Stainless, I know it's an easy target, but since it's not Friday -- just relax and let it go.  He can do a fine job all by himself. :cheers:

Two more views of the parts, threaded ends are drilled for split pins.
I have NI98 welding rod and was thinking of using it for the EN8 and Rocktuff plate?.
What do you guys suggest?. :cheers: :cheers: :cheers: :cheers:

I thought using the press was going to be a no brainer!!!!!.
I heated the uprights, had the spindles in the deep freeze for two days and couldn't get them to move.
I gave up and had a few Tequilas. :evil: :evil: :evil: :evil:
I'll be taking the parts over to my ex engineer Geraldo today. He'll have a solution or a bigger press.
This thing never ends. :dhorse:

OD too big for the ID!. :-D
Spindles need some minor machining. :evil:

I'll have them back tomorrow.
Not much going on except I have to find out what gauge wire I need for the different parts of the car. :dhorse:

Mike;

The wire size needed will depend on the length of the wire and how much current it handles. I can help you if you tell me those two things per wire.
