Things I've Built

Powdercoating Oven

Built a powdercoating oven to experiment with coating parts for motorcycles. The goal was to be capable of fitting a full frame. It worked well, I did coat a frame but it took up too much space so its gone now. More pics http://imgur.com/a/2OS4N

Eclipse Engine swap

This car is what charred my garage. The engine was shot(thrust bearing failure) and needed to be swapped. It also went through a flood and a winter before I got to it. It did run after and I did use it daily. More pics http://imgur.com/a/mhonO

Hardtailed 83 Yamaha Maxim 650

Decided I wanted to hardtail a motorcycle this is what I ended up with. I took 3rd place at a bike show with it, and ended up selling it for a profit :) More pics http://imgur.com/a/T3Q7n

RepRap Adapto 3D Printer

3D printers started getting popular, and I decided I needed to have one. I took this to MRRF back in 2013. I did not make it to the 2014 MRRF. It needs some updates as its starting to show its age. More pics http://imgur.com/a/dzxpz

Datsun 240z

Mostly just a practice in updating from points to electronic ignition, improved alternator, better stereo, and making it look attractive. This one died from rust poisoning. More pics http://imgur.com/a/FNNiW

ElCamino

Mostly just a project in hitting a deer, swapping engines, and bodywork, hitting another deer, and then trying to make a deer proof. Unfortunately I do not have pictures of it when it was completely finished. More pics http://imgur.com/a/RA0yS
