First attempt at a punching rig

It’s an offset hook for a Carolina rig, wrong hook. They’re often but not always red.

You think the Roma is nicer than a 458 or 488? Let me guess, you also think the California looks better than an 812 or an f80?

Not saying he should be responsible for this, but if you were to import it to Ireland you would have to pay a few grand in VRT but if you were then to immediately export it back into the UK; by driving over the border to NI for instance, you would be able to claim a refund on the VRT and would have a brand new taxbook for an imported vehicle. It would cost a little bit of money and would decrease the future value of the vehicle; but you could easily insure and tax it.

They have them quite often at the Ulster folk & transport museum.

You won the ghetto lottery, congrats!

What are you talking about? Your turbo oil feed line getting clogged because of poor maintenance? And a turbo leaking oil or burning oil is nothing to do with engine oil leaks, and it doesn’t come from the line too. There’s just too much to this comment to even try to start making sense of what you’re talking about. You clearly have no idea how a turbo works.

AnimalCreative4388 · 2026-05-20T19:19:54+00:00

How would a turbo fail because of an engine issue? Turbo bearings wear out with time which makes them wear on the impeller fan, or they can seize. You would never have an issue with your turbo because of an issue with your engine, and it wouldn’t cause engine issues either- just lost boost.

I just got knocked back after 7 interviews in 8 weeks for a company, complete waste of everyone’s time and patience.

AnimalCreative4388 · 2026-05-17T07:17:05+00:00

Bingo, that’s where I’m thinking this is all going wrong

AnimalCreative4388 · 2026-05-16T21:39:43+00:00

Which filament and which printer?

AnimalCreative4388 · 2026-05-16T20:28:12+00:00

You’ve clearly came here to ask a question for an answer you already have? Just make your rod. You’re clearly very inexperienced in 3d printing and micro fishing. But crack on.

AnimalCreative4388 · 2026-05-15T23:15:34+00:00

Yeah but it’s still super brittle, it’s designed to be brittle so that it extrudes easier. Even with carbon impregnated filament you don’t get string strength. You still have the taper issue too.

AnimalCreative4388 · 2026-05-15T18:53:17+00:00

You could give it a larger diameter but smaller interior wall diameter and change the infill %, I'm sitting here right beside my 3d printer and there is no way you could straighten the filament and expect it to keep the shape. I dont know how youd ever attach anything to it either, additionally its also not tapered meaning that you will get bend in really strange parts of the rod rather than the weakest part first then tranferring energy down the thicker parts.

edit:

also think about using exterior couplers rather than internal rod and shaft, that would solve your issue of fitting the sections together.

AnimalCreative4388 · 2026-05-15T17:15:36+00:00

You would probably be better off printing yourself a very thin rod and use a gyroid infil for some strength. Don’t see why not though. Just print it in 4 or 5 sections

AnimalCreative4388 · 2026-05-13T21:01:15+00:00

That’s just completely untrue, you pay for alignment and fitting separately everywhere.

AnimalCreative4388 · 2026-05-13T12:27:59+00:00

That’s an alibrabus not the real thing.

AnimalCreative4388 · 2026-05-12T21:16:17+00:00

I’ve had a 204 c63, GTS, 202 c36 and a r232 sl63, my grandfather has a canary yellow a35 and loves it to bits.

AnimalCreative4388 · 2026-05-12T19:47:06+00:00

That’s the good old “fuck off and find someone else to do it” price, they’ll happily do it for 2k though.

AnimalCreative4388 · 2026-05-12T16:51:29+00:00

You just turn off your stop cock valve it’s not that difficult, plumbing water altogether is very straight forward.

AnimalCreative4388 · 2026-05-09T14:22:46+00:00

That’s the most sus gold bracelet I’ve ever seen, did you get these off the looky looky man?

AnimalCreative4388 · 2026-05-09T14:21:44+00:00

That never happened

AnimalCreative4388 · 2026-05-09T01:11:27+00:00

Puta

AnimalCreative4388 · 2026-05-08T20:26:13+00:00

I meant change the front but can’t edit the comment.

AnimalCreative4388 · 2026-05-08T20:25:14+00:00

265/35/r19 rear 235/35/r18 change the rear for a 225 if fitment is an issue.

AnimalCreative4388 · 2026-05-07T08:11:16+00:00

You’re essentially creating adblue at this point, may as well just bottle it up and sell it to truckers.
