Right now it’s too much. I’d have to sell for close to $100. 1/3 of the cost is just the keenserts. Ugh. I think the price on this will prevent me from making more. But at least I have one

I think I've seen that kid post on a few of my Facebook groupsA buddy of mine sent this to me today. Apparently the Pathfinder guy likes my Land Cruiser...
And apparently Pathfinder people have low standards if he thinks my 93 is “clean”...

Yes electricity and wedding rings dont mix ask any electrician.
Below me doing an off road welding demo for our club using a battery.
Do you have a recommendation for a specific type/size of welding rod for doing this?
Hauling wood for the loft in the shop.
Maybe need to have @bhicks start printing them?!?!?!?!
Why do they keep breaking? Do people keep trying to steal it?

I’m 6’2”. My wife is 5’2”. If she moves the seat forward and I don’t realize it my knee takes it out. This time it was my son. He’s 5’6”. I let him take my 93 to go fishing.
It is always my fault. I know it’s stupid. You would think I would learn...

Have another plan instead of 3D printing...
How about making one that mounts in the factory clock location?
incorporate some metal spikes in the design.

Halfway through a seat swap. I got a killer deal on these 2011 VW Jetta seats. Leather, heaters. They are a manual slide, but have power recline. The rails are quite a bit wider than the cruiser ones. I did a bit of light hammering to the ridge in the floorboard where the front mount is closest to the ebrake handle because of the rail width. Without a bit of clearancing to that ridge, they sit too close to the door and the door won't close correctly. Driver seat is done and installed. Need to do the passenger seat tonight.
I needed to fabricate new mounts for them, but that was pretty straight forward. I need to hook up the electricals still but drove it to work this morning and the comfort and seating position is so much better for me. The seat bottom is probably about 1" higher than the stock seat bottoms so it will raise the driving position slightly. These seats have a 'tilt' adjustment for the bottom so with that adjusted lower it doesn't feel like you're sitting any higher.

I cannot confirm nor deny anything. Yet.
Since there's something in the works for 91-94 I'm interested.
A lofty goal of mine this weekend is to replace the rear shocks and add brake fluid to my res to stop the annoying BRAKE light that comes on more often than not. And maybe try to figure out where the brake fluid is going, if it is.
