The project of infinite setbacks
Maybe it's not that bad, but I feel a lot of pressure for multiple reasons to go ahead and get this project done

I got this laser for free. Is it any good?
Now for something a bit different. I get these poorly translated spammy emails all the time so I started taking advantage of them. This thing is a heck of a lot better than I expected it to be, so that's good. Now let's see what other surprisingly useful crap I can get from these emails. I already have another laser engraver ...

I'm stopping on this go kart project for a bit to switch gears and work on something else. Turns out spit welding a high current battery pack together isn't quite as straightforward as I thought

This project took a bit longer than I expected, but I couldn't be happier with the results. Next step: Go Kart

You asked and I answered. This video had no cohesive goal or point. I just walked around my shop and talked about various tools. I could've talked way more about this stuff, but the video would be an hour long and significantly more boring. I hope you enjoy. If not, the next video will be back to normal. Whatever normal is. 2021-08-29 03:05:27 +0000 UTC View Post

Can I Power This Go Kart with a Used Car Alternator?
I may have accidentally made an educational video. I learned a ton from this project and putting together this video. And I filmed it wildly out of order. I'd learn something new and have to go back and re-explain some older piece of information. There are several back to back clips in this video that were filmed a m...

More of a casual video this time. I think I should make more videos like this. It was fun and relatively pressure free to make. It certainly won't be a viral hit or anything, but I think it was worth making. 2021-07-03 17:01:03 +0000 UTC View Post

My Coda needed work done (surprising, I know), so I did that work. Now it should be good to go for at least another mile.
