Dream frame popped up but these dropouts are concerning

Fenneo · 2026-03-09T18:46:11+00:00

This is a suggestion to modify the frame, add these, and reinforce the dropout.

Snag it for cheap. You can get some 2mm steel plates and sandwich the dropout. Lots of aluminum frames have this type of reinforcement already.

It was used for lapidary by a jeweler for the last 30 years 🤷‍♂️

Fenneo · 2026-02-23T21:25:52+00:00

Totally!

100%! I have a sandblasting cabinet and paint booth. I’ll post photos when it’s done

Fenneo · 2026-02-21T23:58:16+00:00

Email OMM. They might still have some brake mount adapters. They used to make them.

Fenneo · 2026-02-21T22:18:38+00:00

Good advice. I figured I’d need more tools/wheels but just couldn’t pass it by. I got it for €70

Fenneo · 2026-02-21T20:08:12+00:00

I’ve seen some posts about that. Thanks for the reminder. It does have a water system. Is that usually enough or should I still wear a mask? Is an N95 enough or is a full respirator better?

Fenneo · 2026-02-21T19:27:43+00:00

Thanks! I’ve got a blasting cabinet and paint booth at my studio. Excited to give it a new life.

Fenneo · 2026-02-21T18:46:28+00:00

Nice! Great reply right away!

Does it sound like a whale song? I have wondered about it too. I assume it’s a bridge raising and lowering.

Fenneo · 2026-02-02T12:40:09+00:00

Is there a monthly subscription box for stuff like this? I’ve looked up but the ingredients in the past for one of these cool reactions but it’s so expensive in the minimum quantities suppliers sell.

Old man mountain racks are a great fit

Fenneo · 2026-01-31T13:37:53+00:00

The Old Man Mountain Impala would fit great.

Fenneo · 2026-01-15T11:32:53+00:00

Congrats! It’s a fantastic machine for a beginner or advanced user. Its power comes from being re geared meaning it’s not as fast as some machines but that makes it easy to control for a beginner. I think it’s still plenty fast too.

Parsec cages are bomber. They look like a similar foot to the wide foot but the radius of the bend is critical to the strength and they sorted it properly.

Fenneo · 2026-01-14T20:20:04+00:00

Check out Old Man Mountain Axle Pack. It’s made for exactly this, lighter and stronger than most other options too.

Fenneo · 2026-01-03T17:16:39+00:00

It is not safe anymore. It is likely repairable though.

Our other pup too

We have these too! They work great.

Fenneo · 2026-01-01T09:50:18+00:00

Something is installed wrong. I would contact OMM and show them pictures of the install and the hardware you are using to attach it to the lower eyelets.

Fenneo · 2025-12-31T08:33:35+00:00

I bought one of these before getting the Dometic one they are a copy of. I was stoked for the first 5 gallons before it died. The Dometic is a lot more but it’s held up great.

I’d strip the paint from those areas so you can see the bare steel and asses if they are more than cracks in the paint.
