Re: What have you MADE?

$40,000.00 in 6 weeks sitting on my butt.Stock market investment.

Hemi I'm guessing you didn't do this by only investing $100?

The way I like to "tune" my car I wish I could rap my head around investing.
I know a guy at work that has just $1000 a year he plays with on penny stocks,his first year was his lowest return,about $200,over ten years ago,now he CLAIMS at least doubling his return!
He sent me to some sites but it was just gobley goop to me....

Bought 1600 shares of VISA the 2nd day it went public.

I do have a few tools that have been bent and ground on.

Thanks guys keep it going.

The stock shifter would go from 1st gear to neutral if you just pushed it.

I made a shifter gate with stops for 2nd and 3rd that works quite well in the stock shifter. Then I had to make another one when I put the reverse shift pattern trans brake valve body in.

Re: What have you MADE?

Made my own reverse-pattern ratchet shifter instead of buying one...it -only- took about $800 in shop time (ouch)...but don't have any pics.

Here, I made this ecm cover for a customer.


This is the female forming die...

Dave is being WAY too modest. He "makes stuff" for a living, as well as driving the semi and a ton of other mad skills. They have a nice shop and it's pretty much busy all the time from what I hear. Dave was kind enough to give me the dollar tour.

I made a thing that bolted to a thing and held a thing on.

Re: What have you MADE?

Here are some transmission line clamps I made for a friend. I am also doing clamps like these for his fuel lines and making some nice alt. spacers. You've seen the car here on Bangshift before, It's the Teal green Chevy II at Chuck and Blairs.....

First attempt at a glass hood and bumper. Not what I would want to do for a living, but interesting stuff.



Air sprung tube front-end. Still don't know if it will work right yet

Re: What have you MADE?

I went hog wild with amig, and basic tools, and sheet metals, and rods..
this past year, I made a "mini" resonator, my own exhaust front to back, except for the convertor and forward..(there is something precise going on there)

a venturi'd CAI with an outside box to stop a bellow...

a rear end welded that normally would have sent grandma crying...now stronger than ever, fixing an oe mistake.

oe mistakes galore...

a subframe left unconnected, reasons unknown, held together by sheet that went over it. I welded that up too...23 years after production, no more creaking noises...

The list is quite long. As I have said, I don't fret the logo missing off the grille.

I ponder machining, head workings unlikely. My locale does not have much in that way tho. :
