Yes but I was kinda expecting to see you ride in the drone shots. They seemed a bit random to me now. I understand having the drone film you is again a step up but there are some drones that have tracking software. I don't know if you can apply it with these speeds but they are used a lot for...

Mike, just make sure you don't leave this forum. I don't have a RV, sandrail, off-road truck or what ever but I read everything you write. Everything you do and specifically the profound explanation you provide us with is gold. It's generally applicable for all engineering/fixing stuff. I don't...

Now that's the difference in having the tools and knowledge to make that a quick job. Well done!

Google it. They have a very very good explanation on their website of how it works.

Thanks Mike, That's also how we do it here. I always like to ask knowledgeable people on their methods, as it's an oppertunity to learn... Again, thanks for everything you share on here. BR. Jan

Amazing Robert! If you wrap this all up in a book I'd buy it instantly.

Mike, two things: 1) You do all that in an hour? That would be a days work for me. 2) I see you didn't disconnect the turbo from the manifold. How do you make sure no drill shavings mess up your turbo?

That would be one of the main reasons to go for a rotiserie. Working overhead while scrapping things in your eyes is not fun. I've a lot of welding to do underneath so I guess my path is clearer. I understand with such a nice chassis your path is leaning towards a cart.

May I ask how much that shear set you back? What are the specs? And what are you going to use it for? I kinda ran into something similar a while back and bought it without seeing it first. It's 4 foot wide, 3mm steel cut capacity. It set me back 1500. Used it a bit here and there but I guess...

I enjoyed going through your work. It looks great! subscribed.

It looks like an awsome daily getaway. Are you going rebuild everything before it goes in storage?

How is it that people can move so fast. In the time you build this house and arranged the garage and got the project started I did… nothing? Ok not nothing but I'm stuck in discussions with builders not knowing how to do a renovation of a 1969 house up to new standards (energy efficient).

Thank you so much for you additional explanation on the clearance. To measure the play you just rock the hub by hand and check the min/max values on the dial indicator, right? Thanks again Mike.

Damn Mike, Can I be your apprentice? I love how well prepared and thorough your work is. The bar is set high where it should be. Thanks for all the pictures. Can you explain the measurement of pre-load with the micrometer? I'm having some trouble understanding what's going on there.

Small steps but the benchtop mill is operational again. It's not powerfull or rigid in any way however fine for aluminium and small stuff. I've replaced the single glass window with tripple glazing. Took me about a week with a couple of hours here and there between home schooling and working...

Instead of bought you want build. I'm waiting for you to do the research and to copy cat you. Last week Ken Forish his book was finaly delivered so it's perfectly in line there... Although an Ooni one is fine too as I discovered yesterday that the importer for the Benelux is actually about 3km...

You have an amazing space there Toon. And I'd like to thank you for the tip on the heating pump for the degreaser. I actually have one which I stripped out of our house a couple of years ago. Happy that I didn't threw it out now I hope to mount it soon.

Thanks for the update! A question though? How is the parts washer holding up? I'm having some issues with the pump that started leaking. The plastic housing starts to leak as soon as there is any pressure on it. How is yours holding up?

Jeej! Welcome to the journal. Any aspirations to get an old BMW back in the garage?

I think it's time to completely isolate the asylum from the outside world. True ambient conditioning should be in place: temperature, humidity, pressure. Then you'd finaly have created your own biosphere. It's the last piece of the puzzle.
