I've seen it done before, but never right above the wall oven. Usually, I have installed the cook top in the island, and the oven in a cabinet nearby. It's an aesthetics thing I believe. There is no...

$23 modification and maintenance today. Went to local automotive store and asked for 10ft of heater hose @5/8 and two gallons of premix. Took about 2 hours, decided to drain and flush the radiator...

Newer ones sometimes left the back hook, but not the front (radiator side). My 2004 Vibe had the rear hook. It helped keep the engine cover in place.

Ive never had it overheat. Since ive reworked my front bumper for more air flow to the rad, got it running better, my temps have dropped pretty good. My oem gauge doesnt show numbers, but the average...

If its not overheating, I wouldn't mess with it. If the temp stays constant and heats up in the correct amount of time, thats a good thing.

A shroud that covers the area around the fans would help more than that. Are you sure your water pump, thermo, an everthing else is in working order? Even the hood being seated correctly helps...

Well, last update was in March, but here we are --- finished product.

did the lint come from a rag you used to apply it? If so, use a roller next time. You are not lost yet, grab some #000 steel wool and rub it along the poly. it will rip lint and brush bristles out...

Problem is, I know the work involved in making eyelids. I've done it a few times, so I can appreiate the effort you put into it - but the problem is that the headlights were already shaped like...

he meant what he said. The most hardcore of pongs. That's why he needed a fire door mounted on the table. To support the bears.

Oh ok, on my monitor it looked like the hood was grayish like the car, I didn't know it was brown. haha. I know the limits of bodywork. I was just curious because I've seen a lot of old nissans with...

Pickguard attempt #6. This is the one I'm sticking with. I've taken this guitar part and carved and changed it for the last 7 years. I think I'm finally happy. It only has finish on it to keep the...

The one on the right, should donate his hood to the one on the left, allowing one car to be kinda all one color. Or is it cool to have multicolored car parts now? I'm behind on trends these days....

In the wake of making my house the way I freaking want it now, i tore down my rasterbated picture of a b-17 flying over the golden gate, and in its place, a b-17 will be flying over the golden gate...

Well, I'll have to look in the morning. I already know the motor is not for the car. The radiator supoort, and door may have different ones as well. I'll find out when the sun's up.

The pontiac was probably scrapped in 1994 as well. (well, 2004) I find it highly unlikely that the car went trough 4 states, 4 owners, and has never been paid off... no matter how upside down the...

Or look up a local carpenter's union. they will have a workshop. volunteer some time and they will likely volunteer some space.

Actually i was thinking wrong since the legs are kicked put. Its 17 3/4 " high

From what you showed me fordlird, the car has had a lien on it since it was sold somehow. It also lived in four different states, and none of them were California which is supposedly where the...

About 24". I based the height off my old table.

I tried autocheck and all it said is its a 4 door hatchback made in the US. Also that there are 20 records on it. Ill send you a PM or anyone else tht has the ability to check. The info may not be up...

Well, to glue it down, I used 3 buckets. Two of them were filled with 40 lbs of wall mud, the other was a 60lb bucket of Black Jack roofing patch. Also 4 gallons of paint, 2 skill saws, some flat bar...

Well, It's working, but it's annoying. I applied to the title and it turns out there's no lean on it. I guess now it has to be found, otherwise it will be salvage. But either way it will be out of my...

Stain shouldn't smell after applied if you use it right. Wax on, wax off, sand in - etc. You can leave it dripping and wet, but it creates inconsistent color and smells like oil.

I went ahead and...

Thank you.

I got the first two stains dug in. Started with a fire engine ed stain that I made, and wiped that off, and sanded in some red oak. Turned out kind of like a reddish walnut.

Been off the DIY thread for a while. Didn't have inspiration for projects as I just got to experience divorce. But I have started creating again.

Today, I did another trash project. And by...

You might be right. They are super basic cars. I thought they were the new age sentra? And sentras werent that terrible. I test drove a base sedan. It even had hand crank windows. The base is a 5spd...

My upstairs neighbor, who's my best friend's boyfriend has a Miata. I think it's a 2000. Heavily modified. I tell him its gay all the time, and he's cool with it. I can't drive it. I tried once. It's...

Dunno if anyone remembers this issue, but I got a call from the lawyers handling this saying the loan company cant procure the title. They may have sold off the title or something fraudulantly. Looks...

No one suggested to go buy a brand new (or possibly 2012) nissan versa for $10k? It won't get you the hatchback, but they're possibly one of the cheapest cars in that range. I test drove one, and...

Black and decker and craftsman make one, and it's made by Ryobi, and is about $35 at target or any hardware store. I have one that I use at work. 3 speed settings. No complaints. I left it on for a 1...

That particular build was 3/4" MDF. perfect for speaker boxes. I also use fiberglass to do similar installs, but it takes a lot of glass for enclosures that big. depends on the client.

Its for picking up the hotties in mad quantities so he can F.F.F. in mad succession.

Made of sex.

Oh shit, I just had a realization. OP, you picked a bad car to learn on. Every newer civic that I ever drove with a stick had that same 3rd / 5th issue where you think it's in gear but its not. I...

You put it off to the side to allow for more stuff to carry and not touch it. I did mine that way to get a bicycle in there, but symettrical does look better.

The first one I ever made: In a...

I love building spare tire enclosures. If I could give you one word of advice - put a grill on it. I had an Aluminum piston woofer that had a brushed stainless face on it. I didnt have a grill and...

whenever I vacuum form boards of mahogany, I use plastic shipping sleeve to do it in. You clamp the two ends down to a table after you slide your piece in, and I use a blow-by valve to create the...

Starting out is something you'll have to get used to. 1st gear is the hardest to master. Hills - you have a fear of rolling back so you give it too much gas. and jam off the clutch to hit it. While...

Sprayed the pie tin on the air cleaner red, then mixed some rustoleum red, pure white 1shot enamel, and some Japan Dry together, and brushed it over the left side of the block (most visible part). I...

The drums will likely stay painted, the lug nuts will probably not. Have you thought about switching to discs in the back?

Went to a mom'n'pop type automotive store in town and explained to the guy what I was trying to do. He popped open a few that might fit and eventually an obsolete one off an older chrysler (not sure...

I found someone who is shipping me the VC's off his 340. One side will have a B240 (I think its called) machine gun facing the grill, and the other will have a ICB emblem. Will be a cool painting...

Slide hammer,
and a framing hammer

Both used for fine adjustment.

Vise-grips and an impact gun would be second.

I would also like to say metallics idea isnt bad either. If it's going to be a jobsite radio though, nothing would say "doesn't belong" like brushed aluminum. Something about that black plastic...

Yup, also your exhaust may smell more like fuel than normal, but spark plugs are a definite indicator.

I don't know about the fuel pump setup on that particular car, but they used to be able to leak into the motor at the fuel pump, which caused your oil to be full, but it was actually mostly gas at...

If you dont want to change the original geometry, then I would not consider adding any more speakers, or a clip, or legs of any kind. One assumes that there are tons of these Ihome things out there...

I don't want to sound like an asshole, but I think it looks amateur at best. I know you're working with a very limited set of tools and knowledge, but maybe you should have paid someone to do this....
