Electric toothbrush and a needle.

Tape deck motor and a guitar string. Melted checkers mixed with bar soap for some really good black ink.

Tape deck motor and a guitar string mechanical pencil number 2 pencil eraser.

fify

when we were kids, only difference was instead of the button attaching the guitar string to the motor shaft it was a rubber eraser

Didn't realize so many of you had done time

Some quality work here on the golf cart o dragged home yesterday. License plate folded in half and screwed to the plastic electric box cover as a heat shield for the equally ghetto wired, taped, and I don’t know what else exhaust tube.

Is that fuel pump screwed right into the tank…?

Ive had pencil lead (not lead) and state issue toothpaste in my arm for over 20 years now. Lol.
Thread from a blanket, staple from court papers sharpened on the walls and shoved into a pencil eraser. One of the many brilliant ideas in the past.

Damn, I had to show the broomstick lol

Is that fuel pump screwed right into the tank…?

Yes. Is it not supposed to be? I’ve never worked on one of these things before.

Depends on if there are pockets for the screws moulded into the tank, or if they just screwed through the side of the tank...

Here’s some more from the golf cart now that I am finally tearing it down to work on it. The exhaust is just, wow. I also love the coil pack hung with zip ties so it hit the exhaust and melted the casing.

 

[rockota]

is that aluminum tape?

My Pops used beer cans for those types of repairs. :D

Yep. Aluminum tape. there is also some bailing wire or similar wrapped around it by the flange with aluminum tape over it. And the floating mount welded to a chunk of larger exhaust tubing so the whole thing just slides and rattle in it. I’m on Summit Racing right now pricing 1.25” exhaust tubing and a small bullet muffler for it.

Wonders why hes quarter lip spring are to soft.

 

[Wuz-A-zuk]

Wonder how long the shank is on those joints, 4" stick out, 1/4" engaged. That's a whole lot of quality engineering there, good spot for those pics.

That will somehow last for years, never bend or break, with someone throwing all kinds of shit on top of it and never thinking twice about it; meanwhile the part I spend 2 weekends designing, fabricating and welding breaks the first trail run out of the garage

 

[WaterH]

Funny, I was looking at Squamch’s signature photo. I have a dog and a shotgun very similar to that. For years the dog had a blue collar too.

That's what happens when you have a pile of bike parts, a welder, and a lot of beer. Built a few deathtraps over the years due to that combination.

With a little refinement and a few bungee cords it's basically a luggage rack.

Can’t say I like it, but I don’t see it as anymore of a death trap compared to other cycles. Let’s face it, most of the danger comes from the other vehicles on the road.

It's still un ridable as most art bikes are ,but yea!
In my opinion.....A "rider needs to "reach a destination" not in the mind but yer soul!

He passed me again the other day. I noticed this.
