Are you changing careers?

I didn't think brute force and ignorance was applicable to machining.


True to form, I have no good way to move it off the trailer.
If the state had not cut funding for the mental institutions, this project could never have happened.

brute force and ignorance can be applied almost everywhere with varying amounts of success... ;D

Hey ML,

gonna ask a question need to fab sleeves to make the inside of the clip-ons smaller, the mirrors come with two adpaters and the largest has an OD of 19mm and still too small, should I make these sleeves out of aluminium or can I use Teflon or bronze?
