Lots of videos on my Tractor Electric Conversions (Hint: Click on the video below and to see the next video, click on the Fast Forward button on the bottom left of the playing video…..There are over 20 videos of electric tractors in action!)
We perform a modification to the magazine and the trigger guard on the CZ-527 that converts the exposed, some feel rather ugly, drop down magazine to a more modern looking flush mounted magazine. BEFORE AFTER Here’s what we do: Mill the trigger guard to a flush bottom fit. We do not offer blueing, so we
If you saw the other article I wrote a month ago about the TORO “Lawn” Tractor that I converted to electric, you saw that the “Operation was a success….But the patient died!” The little “Lawn” tractor’s transmission and tiny axles could not stand up to the massive instantaneous torque of the Motenergy ME1004, 13HP, electric
Recently I replaced my “Soft” Roof Top Tent (RTT) with a smaller, “Hard” RTT. The soft tent was an “Overlander” from Smittybilt. The replacement is from Roofnest and I went with the lowest profile RTT on the market, the Falcon. There were two reasons for the move….One was the Overlander was a bear to fold
A few years ago I installed a rather involved solar system in my Forest River RR19 Toy Hauler travel trailer. Back then, with a single Lithium battery costing over $1000 I decided to go the AGM (Absorb Glass Mat) route. You can read all about this project on another article here on my web page:
After months looking for another Stainless Steel, Ruger New Model Vaquero in 38/357…..I finally found one at a very reasonable price (Well, reasonable for the Covid times $800!) Problem is, it had a 5.5″ barrel and my other NM Vaquero is 4.62″. A quick request on the SASS Forum and Boomstick had me into a
Recently I became intrigued with single driver loudspeakers. Where many, if not most HiFi loudspeakers have multiple drivers…woofer, midrange, tweeter, and sometimes multiples of each, there is a following for a simple design using a single, high quality, full range driver. There are real advantages to this Single Driver design: #1) Single sound source. All
A few years ago I decided that sleeping on the ground was no longer fun. Having spent some time in Australia a few years ago, I became aware of Roof Top Tents (RTT). Seemed every other car and truck had one on top! Once I returned home I did some research and found a “Used
Recently I was perusing the classified section on the diyAudio forum (https://www.diyaudio.com/) and a fellow was offering a small, four tube, amplifier kit for a very reasonable amount. I contacted him and he assured me that all the parts and instructions were there. Seems he had bought this kit years ago and simply never built
Stereo HiFi amplifiers come in many different flavors. Class A, Class AB, and recently Class D has entered the fray. You can do a Google search to understand Class A and Class AB……. Class D is best described here: (From Wikipedia) https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Class-D_amplifier A class-D amplifier or switching amplifier is an electronic amplifier in which the amplifying devices (transistors, usually MOSFETs) operate as
