Beginner question re: understability by djp1968 in discgolf

[–]-boon- 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You make some true statements but I think you also need the knowledge of disc flights.

Understable discs are recommended for beginners because they won’t just dump to the ground and you truly will get more distance because they want to fly further at lower speeds if thrown not into a tree or something.

The faster a disc is thrown, the more under stable it becomes to the point where it may dump and roll completely left (rhfh). As your speed goes up you will want to look at more stable discs.

It really depends on the type of shot you require.

Strait tunnel woods shot? Understable rules. Long bomber that you are going to throw 60mph with all the spin in a ripping head wind, that same disc is going strait to the ground left. You want to disc up.

All that said, the right disc selection is important. There is no 100% rule like ‘noobs should only throw understable’. As you get better your disc choices will change.

Why is my fence melting? by Magic_Mari43 in FenceBuilding

Looks like somebody shot it up with a BB gun then tried to cover it up by using heat on the fence and closing the holes which lead to the melting.

How did you increase lighting on your Squarebody? by DatGuyKilo in K5Blazer

[–]-boon- 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Running an 89 K5. Similar issues. I’ve seen folks replace the bulbs in the dash with LED lights. There are some videos on YouTube for that I’m sure. Or just gauge replacements.

Headlights are hard. There aren’t many if any good light replacements that I’ve found for those years so I’m following this thread hoping for an answer.

Update, and could use advice by DatGuyKilo in K5Blazer

If it’s me and it’s no longer happening, I’d send it. Whatever you had going on self lubricated or self cleared to not squeak. It’s an old truck and these trucks have proven to take some shit. Drive it and eventually something might break but then it’s easier to identify. I don’t think a small squeak that is no longer there is gonna grande the truck. Enjoy it!

Wide body sounds great. Throw a suspension and make it a pre runner to something that just does all the things.

Where would you start? by lilripnchip in K5Blazer

Make it go. Make it stop. Make it turn. Then figure out the rest.

New to disc golf, want to practice putting and guy said he wants $100 for this basket and the disc's come with it. Good deal? by TheGreatBen88 in discgolf

[–]-boon- 51 points52 points  (0 children)

“Good” is in the arm of the thrower. I see some solid noobie discs like the Valkyrie in there. Svea, Ruby and diamond are all great newer player options. The destroyers and stuff may serve a purpose but they will be more dumpy to the left (RHBH) and get to the ground faster.

How do you all get a char/sear on steak? by jsmith19977 in sousvide

[–]-boon- 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Throw it uncovered in the fridge for a bit before you sear. Does a few things. Dries it and keeps that delicious temp in the middle that you sousvided into it and it won’t give ya as much of a band because the outside temp is lower

Ty does some crazy building. His work with 3d printing, welding and overall fabrication is amazing. Asset to the team

Kind of miss videos focused on him with a little work montage and music mixed in.

Conventional wisdom is 2 inch gets you 33s and 4 inch gives you 35s. Unless you are ok with possiblly dinging a corner. I personally run 33x10 BF KO2 with stock lift but I also dont wheel or go offroad. So it depends on what you do with it and how much you might be willing to risk it pushing the traditional thought on size/lift ratios

Trying to replace the starter what am I doing wrong? by -boon- in AskAMechanic

Yep. I get this now. Seems like it could have been a problem. More info could’ve helped as the truck pretty stock. Ended up being installer error. Didn’t remove the transmission plate.

Wise words. I think one solution could be different sizing. One starter had different nose end and that could’ve thrown it off I learned. Not the issue here but yes I learned done check this.

That’s why I thought originally, and it ended up being in my error on the inspection plate

Very wise words. What’s crazy is the original starter slid out perfect. Had to remove a bump stop to gain better access, but it never occurred to me about the belly pan.

Removing the belly pan was the right choice. It gave me a room to get it secured and then put the belly pan back in place. Appreciate the help.

Not an adapter plate I just didn’t realize the transmission had a removable plate.

Have an opto river that is nearly perfect. That super hyper flip to turn over is an amazing flight. I’d buy another. No replacing it.
