General / Tool Boxes / Chests
« on: 26 June 2013, 02:12:39 pm »
i'm getting really fed up with having my tools in a right mess in the garage and need to get myself a proper tool chest.
do any of you have the big ones (usually red) on wheels ?
if so, what do you think of them ?
makes, models, prices, comments etc would be appreciated :)
thanks  ;)

Not bad, you can get good results with jst a can. Sand now with a wet 2000grit. Then buff up with a paint cutter. That'll get rid of the orange peel in the 3rd picture  :D
that was initially my plan.
paint, sand, repeat.
life just got in the way as per usual!  :rolleyes
will sand them all down and do a proper job when more time allows.

FZS600 Fazer / painting the matt black bits :)
« on: 20 June 2013, 08:53:47 pm »
was getting fed up with the black plastic bits on my bike not matching the rest of the gloss black bike, so i broke out the aerosol cans and had a go.
not a proffesional job, but looks better than the matt black ones.
primer, 3 coats of black gloss, 4 coats of clear gloss top coat.
thoughts ?

couple of extra photo's as promised.
the 2 led strips were £4.73 from fleabay with free postage !
double checked tonight and the camera makes the led's look way bluer than they really are.
think the blueish tint you get on some of these headlights and its like that.

for some reason the camera picked them out with more blue than they actually are.
they have a slight blue tint to them but no more than some of the blueish headlights frequently seen.
will have to get the dual headlight mod sorted soon  :rolleyes

Looks like one of your headlight bulbs has blown, you've only got one working on dip.

Oh sorry, you mean there is a Mk1 Fazer owner that hasn't done the headlight mod?
it's on my "do to" list :)

hiya mate, on some of your vids, you've got a picture in picture frame, what software are you using for that?

using power director 11
nice bit of kit with more power than i'll ever need.
this is the vid of the numpty
tell me what you think.
i'm not saying that i'd report everyone i see that breaks the traffic laws as, to be fair, we all do.
but when someone is driving dangerously and causing other traffic to take avoiding action, that deserves reporting in my book.

Id just get over it!!!!!!   :rolleyes
normally i'd just let it go, but as he was overtaking vehicles well into a 30 mph zone that's more than i'm willing to let go.
if he does this too much it won't be long before someone gets knocked over or worse killed.

no trousers,
a flippin' school dress ffs!  :grumble :grumble :grumble :grumble :grumble

was driving in my cage on friday night and had this complete nutter overtake me and about 3 others going into a 30 zone weaving in and out of traffic.
got it on my dash cam.
is there any way i can send this video to the coppers to get something done about it ?
thanks :)
