    Making doodads

    I need $ and I'm willing to put in work.

    I have access to several lathes, an end mill, bandsaws and welding gear (both MIG and TIG). What are some things that people generally would want made?

    I was thinking of doing something simple like shift nobs, but many other people do them already.

    I also have access to carbon Fiber layup facilities and I was considering making splitters or decklids but I'm not sure If I can really consistently churn out parts like I can with metal.

    I can also do small custom orders for things like spacers, brackets, or any other simple part you need made to spec.

    Post here if you have an idea or a suggestion or PM me if you have a set part you want made.

      I'd love to get you to make a spacer for my power steering pulley. It would be aluminum, about 5/8" thick and 2" in diameter. 3 equi-spaced holes and hub centric. I can do a drawing with specs if you can make it. I would only need 1 or 2 though…for now…

          I can get started on it next week if you send me the specs. I can turn aluminum pretty well.

                  Send me some specs and I can probably get them made. I can't really start production until next week, though.

                            i hate that! now....what to do with the cantaloupe? do you stick it in the fridge for later? what happens when melon seed mixes with man seed? does it produce anything? how many uses? do you leave it out so it gets to room temp or is it better cold? when your balls slap up against the rind, does it chaff? why is it so socially frowned upon to have a little nookie with fruit? its not like your are banging a goat or something.

                              Is this enough info? It's been a long time since I've drafted anything.
