Bought a book called Paper Houses: Build a Livable, Enduring House of Paper

Is it an instruction manual?
Is step #1 to buy 100,000 of those books to use as the building materials?
Ppl build house from hay and old tires and mud! Why not paper???

In a way, yes, it is an instruction manual. It even goes through the construction process. It’s from the '70s—hippies and drugs resulted in some crazy ideas. I have a small collection of architectural books, so I figured I would add this one.

Well Mrs. Littlemotor is THE JAM.

Avid Racing Revolution/Flex/Hybrid bearing kit for Tekno NB48 2.2 in the mail!

Being stuck inside the last few days I've been eyeing this little guy. I owned one similar probably 10 years ago.

Cool. I almost bought one last year. Let us know what you think!

I'm trying NOT to go buy it lol

 

[332_RC]

I talked myself out of it. It's very small. The vids are cool tho.

 

[Speed Chaser]

I don't recommend a small heli far too twitchy for my liking

Went in just to get a new dremel

The ratchet was free, they didn’t have the brushless dremel in stock

I KNOW they definitely DO have the directional 5 spoke from the Hyper 7… lemme go look homie…

Congrats on the Radio setup! I have the distinct feeling that you and @WickedFog are nerding out hard right now…


No dice… I checked both them, annnnnd RC-Willpower.com… and eBay..

i appreciate ya lookin' but I was skeptical if you were gonna come up with anything. I havent been able to find another pair in some time.

Been sick lately so I havent really been able to nerd out with WF yet. Hopefully this weekend!

Kobalt 8 gallon air compressor on marketplace for $30! Fits perfect under my work bench

Man, What a score for $30! Is it holding pressure well?

It was no problem homie, and definitely BE skeptical… I was for 20yrs, but wouldn’t have ever found mine if I stopped looking! Hope ya feel better dude!

Not sure how tight they’re supposed to be but over the course of 12 hours it dropped from 140ish to about 75. Good enough for me!

That’s a LOT… I’d be checking connections everywhere it’s got one.. Soapy water in a spray bottle is your friend.. Definitely not a bad enough leak that you’ll be fighting it while working, but thats a lot of leak down.

STILL well worth thirty damned dollars… I’d have to get it right though lol..

Agreed! Fixing a compessor leak is generally pretty cheap and easy though and even if you dont fix it, as long as its holding air long enough to use it then still worth $30!

 

[Lostinthewoods86]

Also ordered M2C shock caps for the mt410, I had the tekno ones in the cart when I was building it, but decided to wait and see if we would have a problem with them…well

Also ordered arrma 4s motor mount and center diff for the big rock. Tired of changing spur gears in that thing.

Meh I’m really not too worried about it. Planning on just using it for 30 minutes at a time maybe once/week when I’m cleaning my cars or blowing off my bench. I don’t mind if it’s flat for the other 167 hours of the week
