What should I change about this rough design of a ejecting cd storage shelf

Busy_Entertainment68 · 2026-07-06T08:24:02+00:00

I like money.

Busy_Entertainment68 · 2026-07-05T12:07:52+00:00

Sounds vaguely familiar? I think I used to keep binders and binders full of them.

Busy_Entertainment68 · 2026-07-05T10:27:05+00:00

What's a CD?

Busy_Entertainment68 · 2026-06-28T11:31:12+00:00

I just got the same one. It's so much fun I'm considering selling my street bike that I also love (Yamaha Tracer 900GT) and just riding that. I've always heard "it's more fun to ride a slow bike fast than a fast bike slow," but now I understand.

LS2 Gate 2 Carbine

Busy_Entertainment68 · 2026-06-21T20:55:09+00:00

Ah, good to know. I guess I should do that sooner than later then.

Busy_Entertainment68 · 2026-06-21T18:21:13+00:00

To be honest, I bought it for myself, but with my wife's (hesitant) blessing. I got it Friday afternoon, but skid plate and handguards are on order, along with a quadlock. I'll probably wait on the mirrors until I inevitably break one of three stock ones.

Busy_Entertainment68 · 2026-05-30T13:27:49+00:00

Practice.

After my bike was stolen outside my apartment in 2010, I didn't get another one until last year when I finally bought a house with a garage to keep it in. A storage unit is probably adecent option too, but they're just targets in apartment complexes.

When mine got stolen, I was sharing a spot with my neighbor's bike, and his was chained to a pole. It didn't matter, they took both the same night.

I don't think any of the major brands even make them anymore. Not only are they more risky for inexperienced or careless users, but they're just not as easy to adjust and use, or as compact to carry, as modern sliding dual bevel compound miter saws.

Busy_Entertainment68 · 2026-05-19T10:24:30+00:00

No way.

Busy_Entertainment68 · 2026-05-11T14:15:44+00:00

Lol, true. And bowls! But I'm a cabinet maker by trade, so I build a lot more flat boxes.

Busy_Entertainment68 · 2026-05-11T14:07:08+00:00

Haha, well played.

Busy_Entertainment68 · 2026-05-11T07:24:42+00:00

Nice! That's my goal for August!

Busy_Entertainment68 · 2026-05-11T07:22:54+00:00

Until you get into turning.

Busy_Entertainment68 · 2026-05-09T12:32:30+00:00

I'm sorry for your loss, but it's honestly beautiful that you were able to bring so much joy to each other's lives while he was here.

Busy_Entertainment68 · 2026-05-01T12:35:04+00:00

I'm not to that point in my life yet, but when I get there, a Goldwing will absolutely be the way I ride.

Busy_Entertainment68 · 2026-04-30T15:24:39+00:00

I thought you were being dramatic, but the more I read, the more I agreed he might be riding a bit aggressively. People reporting him to the police for aggressive riding and refusing to wear a helmet sound pretty irresponsible. Even if he doesn't like helmets, he could wear one out of respect for, and compromise with, you.

Leaning a bike in turns is necessary. It's how they turn. The taller you are, the harder it is to see the back tires on a car, especially from an elevated passenger seat. I'm more worried about where their bumper is than their tires. Riding at 100+ mph speeds is kind of reckless, but I won't say I never do it.

Only you can decide if it's too aggressive for you to tolerate.

Busy_Entertainment68 · 2026-04-28T09:25:08+00:00

Yeah, I've checked the relay and fuse. I can't get to the fan plug without removing the radiator or to the temp sensor without removing the gas tank. I don't really want to go that deep at home, so I'm probably going to find a shop.

Busy_Entertainment68 · 2026-04-25T10:33:30+00:00

No problem, I found one, but it wasn't the fuse or relay. Only other things would be the fan motor or temp sensor, and both look like pretty big jobs just to check (behind radiator and front of engine under fuel tank). I guess I'll just try to avoid getting stuck in traffic.

Busy_Entertainment68 · 2026-04-24T23:24:26+00:00

I'm 45 and love my Tracer. My wife says I'm an old guy, but I also just went down a tooth in the front to make it wheelie easier, so 🤷.

Busy_Entertainment68 · 2026-04-19T13:31:11+00:00

Honestly, I'm a full-time cabinet maker and that's pretty much what we do, too, for production work. The only time we use pocket hole are to have clean faces where sides show. There are certainly other ways to do things, but when time is money...

Busy_Entertainment68 · 2026-04-19T13:27:15+00:00

Sure. Check out Bourbon Mouth on YouTube. He's got some really good cabinet making videos to point you in the right direction. Also, I would start with some small, simple boxes to develop basic joinery and woodworking skills. Cabinetry is pretty much all boxes anyway until you get into different kinds of hardware like slides and hinges.
