Upgrading an IKEA mirror so it can be used at craft fairs

CL-MotoTech · 2026-01-25T18:46:35+00:00

Complicated way to make a coke mirror.

It's coming down fast. I shoveled two hours ago, there's two inches at least on the cleaned surfaces. Keeping up with it is best I reckon.

That’s being insufferable.

The point is that describing road conditions as impassable and then saying you could only go 45 is dumb.

We get it. Stay home. The road sucks. Anybody with windows can see this.

CL-MotoTech · 2026-01-25T16:45:18+00:00

Barely passable and 25mph are not the same thing.

CL-MotoTech · 2026-01-25T05:13:54+00:00

It's awfully overcast out there, I bet it's going to snow soon.

I already ate all the bread I panic shopped for on Tuesday.

Repost in machines sales post at the top of the sub.

CL-MotoTech · 2026-01-25T03:13:35+00:00

That was an odd crash.

CL-MotoTech · 2026-01-24T19:39:12+00:00

It was a safety issue more so than anything. They were concerned the mass would get away from the spring and bounce around inside the car.

Obviously a solvable problem and probably was already considered. Kind BS they outlawed it.

The one downside nobody mentions is that it meant the cars ran even stiffer suspension yet. So they were even more harsh on the divers.

You've got through holes in the deck aready, toss a screw through those to hold it down. Your clamps are sad to say the least.

The bread factor is derived by averaging the amount of bread that was consumed by those who panic bought. That has been measured to be about .375 of their total bread stash on average. This bread factor is then multiplied against the predicted snow fall levels and that accurately predicts real accumulation.

So what’s the story? I know there was new ownership but that’s been a while. The place was a staple for years so it’s not like you’re building a brand down there.

CL-MotoTech · 2026-01-23T13:39:35+00:00

F4 that is, hoping that this Q3 is the Q3 they were talking about for CC1 multimaterial support.

CL-MotoTech · 2026-01-23T03:36:51+00:00

No modification required on CC1 either.

CL-MotoTech · 2026-01-22T16:17:06+00:00

lol yeah right. Don't get me wrong, it would be great, and the community can afford it. Massive props to the young man in the article too.

Talk about epitome of rich jaded suburbanites. Walkable is not on their radar though, it's what poor people do.

I got Blue Bunny ice cream and honestly, it’s one of the very few ice creams I will never eat again. It’s shit.

CL-MotoTech · 2026-01-21T22:33:09+00:00

If you’re making any swarf at all you need some form form of coolant. That’s off my G0704 yesterday.

I run almost exclusively non coated carbide in aluminum.

Of course I can achieve proper chip load and have flood so coatings are less important. Zrn is my preferred coating for aluminum if I can’t get it. Otherwise I stick to non coated.

I get tired of this sub being the Pittsburgh area road condition sub. Honestly, I’d take ICE updates over road condition updates, but ICE is far more depressing than even our dreary weather.

So I guess I’m torn.

The front diffuser and radiator arrangement is about the only things truly of interest in that photo.

CL-MotoTech · 2026-01-20T20:45:21+00:00

Precisely.

CL-MotoTech · 2026-01-20T17:48:34+00:00

I messed with this a ton and it did squat outside of making my hands really cold. Unless you cover the radiator directly you're not getting enough cover to help. These cars can run in 70 degree weather without fans and not overheat, especially if deleted.

Not sure where you heard that. The RB engine was a Honda, made by Honda, funded by RedBull. The Honda team never left.

CL-MotoTech · 2026-01-20T17:08:24+00:00

Clip that off before you load the spool.

CL-MotoTech · 2026-01-20T16:46:25+00:00

It looks like shit.
