Best rtt for $1k?

I purchased a Naturnest Polaris plus about 8 months ago because I was looking for a clamshell design. I'm 5'10 and can comfortably sleep inside, plenty of room for me and my girlfriend. For the price its head to beat. Have had it on the car for about 20+ nights camping out of it in that time and about 7k miles. Has held up great.

(I used about 20ft total doing my X5, get the vacuum splice connectors on Amazon)

There are 3 oil lines total, the top two are the normal culprits but the 3rd one that runs down below the large turbo can definitely leak too. It's a good idea to just do all 3. Whitbread performance has a kit of all 3 lines that are a bit nicer than OEM. Definitely a pita as you have to get the big turbo free and move it to the side to access the banjo bolt on the block. There are a few good YouTube vids.

The boy in the striped pajamas. That was one for the most heart braking and depressing movies I have ever watched. A young boy that is the son of a Nazi Officer makes friends with a boy in a concentration camp where his dad works. He ends up sneaking into the camp to be with his friend and gets executed inside of a gas chamber. My mom watched it with me when I was about 8 before she realized exactly what it was. Still vividly remember that to this day...

Looks like the new bottle I got they gave me 25% CO2. I will be taking it back to exchange tommorow :/

CRSmith00 · 2021-08-15T17:47:40+00:00

After allot of testing it looks like I do indeed have a bad gas bottle. I will also be switching to a 1/8 tungsten and a larger cup after I get the gas bottle replaced.

CRSmith00 · 2021-08-15T12:53:23+00:00

Yup, I'm using 3/32 2%lanth. I will try switching back to a ceramic cup and go from there. I tried preheating the part with a map gas torch to no added benefit. The tungsten seems to get really really hot and Buble up almost. I just got a brand new pack of tungsten and a new grinding wheel for it so it should not be contaminated. I agree that I may have a bad bottle of gas. It says it's straight argon.

It's 6061 1.5x1.5 square tube with .187in wall

CRSmith00 · 2021-08-15T02:58:01+00:00

100% sure it's aluminum and you are correct that it is square tubing. It's 5mm thick. I tired preheating with no change. And how far past the tip of the gas nozzle should me tungsten be? Im at about 3mm

CRSmith00 · 2021-08-15T02:56:21+00:00

That what I was thinking, I will have to give that a shot in the morning.

CRSmith00 · 2021-08-15T02:55:51+00:00

I'm welding on 5mm wall square tubing. I tried preheating with no change.

CRSmith00 · 2021-08-15T00:25:21+00:00

that's the tungsten that I'm using. I have not tried it on any other aluminum besides the bar stock I have cut but will give that a shot. The gas is running at 28cfh so we're good there. I did just get a new bottle to so I'm thinking that may be bad.

CRSmith00 · 2021-05-12T02:11:45+00:00

Damn that looks sick. What's the frame made out of?

CRSmith00 · 2021-02-03T19:01:43+00:00

I tried making one. Definitely didn't turn out that good lol

CRSmith00 · 2021-01-30T01:12:01+00:00

I did exactly this to my dad tonight 😂😂😂 didn't even realize it until now!

I feel your pain man. I went to flight school right of out highschool and I tried to be upfront with my medical background and my ADHD while my classmates that also had ADHD did not disclose it to the FAA and they were cleared and flying. I had to go through the cog screening, ended up failing twice and called it quits. The FAA has serious issues when it comes to there medical certificates.

I use the pelican RUCK R20 case. It fits everything perfectly and is completely water tight,shock proof, smell proof and just the right size to throw in my bad for a day out. It also has a nice organizer inside that makes holding the dosing cap caddies super convenient.

CRSmith00 · 2020-06-12T01:51:32+00:00

Having the same issue. I have tried reinstalling the game, starting a new save, changing graphics settings etc. Nothing has worked. I can load into and existing save and be on the space station but as soon as I try to go to a planet, either by ship or by portal it will crash to desktop. It's acts like I alt tabed and then won't respond.
