    camping fire pit ring material ????

    I'm with Chop Shop. An oil drum seems to be the cheapest option, unless you can cue up a big washer for cheap as somebody mentioned. I just use rocks for risers to save a little weight/space, and it doesn't hurt em at all (so long as they're granite). If you're looking for something you can...

    Knives in the Kitchen

    Doug, those Kiwi Brand knives are all I use. They're at every one of the Asian restaurant supply places around here, and I figured if the brand is good enough for the professionals... They take an edge very well, hold it decently, and they're dirt cheap. I've had one in my camp kitchen for...

    Homemade beef/venison/elk jerky. Any flavor you want to make it. Also dried smoked trout - like "squaw candy". Real old-school GORP, with the occasional M&M allowed. Baked Lay's chips. Whatever's free in the EMS lounge in the ER...

    EGR - High NOx tips?

    This is awesome. Like Heckraiser, when my 60 went to s***, I left it in project mode cuz I was broke...2 years ago. Tried all the EGR stuff, replaced all the vacuum lines, sait screw it and moved on to other projects. Now with a new job and fat paychecks, I'm gonna slap a new cat in and see if I...

    I Fought the Spare Tire Carrier...And I Won SST

    At one point (in an emergency, naturally) I had to cut my tire down with a bolt cutter, and after that the spare just lived in the cargo space. Finally a coupla years ago I got the whole assembly down with penetrating oil, BFH, and torch and did it right. Took it down to components, ground em...

    Stupid, crazy project ideas.

    That website was about all I could find on the T-800TDI. Not very informative. I'm not sure why a diesel powerplant seems like such a cool idea to me either, cause I'm not into biodiesel or anything. Maybe we'll build a freight motorcycle! Or maybe we'll just work on some other unusual ideas...

    Frame building ideas?

    Naw, I mean motorCYCLES. I don't think it's possible to get all that cool with a motorized bicycle...that's a moped to me. I will check that dude out. I got half a chub the other day looking at this stuff too... Confederate Motor Company got to love a tank-integral monocoque frame.

    Stupid, crazy project ideas.

    Buddy of mine and I are embarking on a project. We both work in healthcare, but he's a mechanical engineering student and I used to be a welder and can mangle stuff on a lathe a little bit, so we're gonna hit up the metal shop at the local university and screw around some. He's better with...

    2000 Chevy starting trouble

    I'm so aggravated, this is gonna be short. The Chebby was gonna be my DD while Adelaide got restored. I'm starting to think I got bad juju. Motor won't catch. Starter kicks in like a champeen, cranks real strong, takes a couple turns on gas, then dies. Used to just be when it was hot, now it's...
