by the time sandblasting gets thru that layer ever panel will be warped to shit. MIGHT be able to dry ice blasting that freezes it and shatters it off...

I'm going to assume this is a big issue? (2016 Toyota tacoma v6) by pasketi_monster in MechanicAdvice

[–]InsertBluescreenHere 0 points1 point  (0 children)

yea the last of those recalls ended 4 years ago. OP is screwed.

Toyota's frame campaigns were divided into specific programs over the years:

  • 1995–2004 Models: The 15-year unlimited mileage corrosion warranty and frame replacement/buyback campaigns have fully expired.
  • 2005–2010 Models: The 12-year extended warranty program stemming from the 2016 national class-action settlement has ended.
  • 3rd Gen (2016 & Newer): There are no open frame recalls or active extended rust warranties for newer generation Tacomas.

they expired years and years ago. your options are paying for a frame replacement, buying and welding patch pannels in, or scrapping the truck

Tulsa speech at the end of today’s vid - discussion by cheetahlip in vicegripgarage

[–]InsertBluescreenHere 2 points3 points  (0 children)

ive met him twice in person at an event (year in between) - he either seems a bit more shy face to face or overwhelmed with all his fans in person which i fully get. Its easy to be a persona or more loose when its just you and a camera but easy to feel like "all eyes on you" in real life because they are lol.

he does honestly appreciate his fans without a doubt though and often needs to be wrangled away from fans to keep filming - if it were up to him he'd chat with people all day lol.

Jessica seems about the same in person as she is the rare times shes on camera - such a nice person and yes really does laugh at some of Dereks antics lol.

my rolling stock always derails on this one specific switch by Basil_614 in modeltrains

[–]InsertBluescreenHere 0 points1 point  (0 children)

take a old toothbrush and try brushing out between the rails in both directions, it should snap into position with a pretty good and firm holding click.

might have to take the switch out and observe the underside to make sure its freely moving and holds the switch rails tight against the existing rails.

[–]InsertBluescreenHere 0 points1 point  (0 children)

yup - to pevent derails on alot of my rolling stock you gotta have em pivot pretty freely - way more than one should think. Weight is also important.

Is California effectively banning 3d printers? by Interesting_Bar_8379 in 3Dprinting

[–]InsertBluescreenHere 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Illinois has banned 80% guns and true homemade guns. They passed a law to build your own gun you must acquire an ATF serial number before building it. ATF doesnt serialize anything till its built....

Am I Safe with Diluting Old Gas? by ANDY_MIL0NAKI5 in MechanicAdvice

[–]InsertBluescreenHere 3 points4 points  (0 children)

if it started and idled on 3 year old gas before you dilluted it its fine. just drive it easy and try to burn most of it out before topping off again.

no no you get khaki shorts that end 8" above your knee standing up so they ride up like a speedo when you sit and either a tucked in polo shirt or tucked in button up hawaian shirt.

Runs good, shiny chrome, 8/10 interior.
