I scored BIG today!! 😎

View attachment 170747View attachment 170746View attachment 170748View attachment 170749

Picked up a virtually brand new DBXL-E 2.0 for $425!!!! About $1500-1800 worth of stuff.. 😳🤯
He only ran it on asphalt about half a dozen times.. This thing is CLEAN!!
It came with two sets of tires and a set of 4s packs. He also put about $300 buck worth of Integy crap on there.. I’ll definitely be removing the aluminum arms.

I’m so pumped I could scream!! I’ve wanted one for a very long time! Happy birthday to me!! 😁🤙
Wanna sell the arms?
 
Hate might be a bit strong... but we aren't especially liking you right now.
:joyful:
Congrats on a nice score!
Don't worry we can get him on the playground later. :p

Yah, good score. It's what you call a motivated seller, and that's how it should be. I see stuff that is obviously used and people are knocking 20% off the full price? That's called a sale. The rule of thumb is 50% of the original value IF it's in good condition.

BTW you probably didn't account for taxes and shipping in your value estimate, so take on another $150 to that.
 
I like hate people always hate me crap my own family hate me I have plenty of salt haha
 
First of many Vitavon upgrades for the Dibby. Pics don’t do this piece justice, you really need to hold it in hand to appreciate the quality! 🤯

I really miss making stuff like that. Looks nice! They cut a few corners on the surfacing toolpaths though. And their pocketing path stopped before finishing the pocket. Kinda strange. Wonder if a tool broke, or if they just forgot to run the floor finish path 🤔

Funny you should mention that, I was just looking it over pretty hard and noticed the same thing. Strange.. 🤔

Pics of the inside. I have pretty big hands, so this is a fairly large piece.

Sweet. Yeah, there are a few areas where they could add a debur path using a reverse countersink tool. But an impressive chunk of aluminum. Run around it with a fine stone and get those burrs cleaned up so they don't end up being the monkey wrench in the machine 😉

When I finished machining something, I created debur toolpaths to clean everything up. I really hated wearing aluminum shavings after deburring parts manually.

I always said "If you can't lick the whole part like a lolipop without getting cut, the part ain't done machining" 😝
