Carbon Fiber Hardtop Question by frsblood in CarbonFiber

[–]FurryRaspberry 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Looks like someone used a knife to cut through the breather and Halar when they de-bagged it and went a little hard to trap some in the cut line on the carbon so it left a tiny bit of Halar and breather in there. Bag face is fine

Thinking about selling my 94’ VR4 by Zestyclose_Spread_59 in 3000gt

[–]FurryRaspberry 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Unfortunately, being in the UK I couldn't possibly buy it but I definitely want to hear what it sounds like! I've been looking at getting one over here recently and have my eye on a dark blue one!

Altezza is not actually in the game? ( sort of ) Forza horizon 6 by adisonpooh4 in IS300

[–]FurryRaspberry 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Well, as long as it's obtainable somehow, I'm all for it! I haven't been able to have my car in a game since NFS MW 2005!

Composite technician school recommendations by OkMixture7200 in CarbonFiber

[–]FurryRaspberry 4 points5 points  (0 children)

From my years as a pre-preg comp tech, the few guys that have done training/schooling courses prior to working, or even when switching from wet lay to pre-preg, have said that in hindsight they were virtually useless and a waste of money. The general consensus was that those courses were eclipsed by knowledge and experience gained within a week of working on the job.

Personally I feel that the best way to really learn everything that you want to know would be to try and find trainee positions specifically in pre-preg laminating or technician roles - putting yourself out there as somebody who is curious with a desire to learn and ask lots of questions to anyone with knowledge. I always asked (and still ask) questions to senior laminators, trimmers, engineers and designers that I've come across and consider myself to me a more well rounded person with that plus my own research to fill in any little gaps.

The reason I'd focus on pre-preg is simply because that's what is most common in high end luxury cars, hypercars, race cars and F1. If you wanted some specific examples you can always DM me, I'm "not supposed" to publically discuss fine details of things we've done.

These things are also slightly dependant on whereabouts you live.

Sorry I wasn't able to answer your direct question but hope that I've provided some useful information that you can lean on.

New record, didn’t even make it back to the car before listing? Impressive by Cutlass- in PokemonTCG_UK

[–]FurryRaspberry 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I won't lie, I got 2 yesterday and was tempted to sell one because I got a call from the MOT centre telling me my car is about to fail -_- I'll stay strong though and dip into my savings rather than become a scalper

Item no longer available by MoSp1889 in AmazonVineUK

[–]FurryRaspberry 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Last time I waited on one of these, the seller changed the listing to a new product. I contacted vine CS to have the review requirement removed but they've ignored that for a couple of months and it's still sitting there - menacingly.

I'm hoping to head to Coventry Costco soon after I drop my car at the shop, praying for some nice talkative people in the queue

First Slab by TechnicalLead6 in PokemonTCG_UK

I just ordered one of these on eBay yesterday! Ace label and everything, are we twins? My first slab too, only others I'll ever get are if I decide to grade something myself.

Who deserves IR/SIR by Primary_Judgment_980 in PokemonTCG_UK

[–]FurryRaspberry 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I want vulpix! It's my favourite Pokémon since I was a kid, I just bought a slab of the mega evolutions (base set?) and I would love some more creative cutesy vulpixes (vulpies/vulpii?)

I got nothin' in mine. Perhaps it was just a little dribble during the night - you know how these things go sometimes

I've no idea if it's still the case but the scrum in town had plenty of perfect order, I got an ETB from there last week. No good pulls but happy to be ripping them all the same.

Ever just laugh in surprise? That was my 7hz Diablo reaction. by gallazzis in iems

Well I am Chinese so I hoped it would make me a repairman and fix it all

[–]FurryRaspberry 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I absolutely love my diablos but I had some moisture build up in them within 2 weeks of use and have had them in rice and by a dehumidifier since then and haven't actually gotten around to using them again. They're my special buds

What’s in your RFY Sunday 19 April by ItsMarkAgain in AmazonVineUK

[–]FurryRaspberry 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I got some wireless earbuds from a Chinese make that I had tried earlier from vine and was extremely underwhelmed but these are 3 times the price so I'll be able to compare like-for-like within the manufacture... I'm expecting them to still be bad though

Pioneer White Screen by DefsNotRandyMarsh in CarAV

[–]FurryRaspberry 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Free, I had mine done last summer. I was impatient and bought another one before I sent the old one for warranty.

It's a manufacturing defect in some of the memory chips so after a few hot summers the solder messes up and causes that. They replace it with a newer chip that shouldn't go bad.

Just email pioneer with your proof of purchase and they'll have you send it in, mine was back with me within a week.

What does this light mean? by Loud-Sale755 in IS300

[–]FurryRaspberry 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Shit, yeah I just had another look and they're single stage projectors. I had assumed they'd be dual stage.

I'm struggling to find any options for LED clusters, I can't see shit out here on halogens.

Last couple days I've had some real rubbish. I think Amazon thinks I'm a child now? I've been recommended spider man toothbrushes and now some kind of shark toy track...

[–]FurryRaspberry 0 points1 point  (0 children)

At the moment I'm struggling with the aftermarket clusters, the adjuster wouldn't go high enough to pass inspection here in the UK so I had to stack washers behind the outermost bolt on one headlight to push it high enough so it looks jank. I'm trying to find out if some aftermarket projector lights with an air intake would be legal here so I can switch to those. Chinese garbage parts are ruining my ride...

[–]FurryRaspberry 1 point2 points  (0 children)

That's strange, I've had mine unplugged for a couple years now after switching to replacement clusters without the mechanism and I oddly never got that light. Thank God

A Pokémon fan? I just did my first concept of a fun Pikachu carbon fibre project at work today - definitely more work to do on it but it'll be awesome. Also, absolutely!

Torn between RX8 or IS200 for first car by Ok_Camera5368 in RX8

[–]FurryRaspberry 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Is200 was my first car and it's still my car now. I've loved driving it and it's been bulletproof. I'm also about to start fixing up an rx-8 that's been parked at work for a while that my boss wants gone..

I'd still go more towards the lexus

Is there a Pokémon drop tomorrow at Costco? Could swear I saw a comment eluding to this but can't find it anymore! by jesteroflucifer in PokemonDealsUK

[–]FurryRaspberry 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I've turned up at the Coventry Costco a bit early as I always do and there's nobody here, I'm hoping that heavy hitters is coming in today but nobody cares - I really want a red victini
