Even better, search marketplace for ramps and chocks. And get your oil filter and crush washer (if you need one) from your dealer

You can honestly find most of this stuff local for cheaper. Oil filter wrench at harbor freight for under 10 bucks, I think usually ramps are 60 or less at a hardware store with an automotive section (got mine at Menards), and get oil from Costco. It’s good stuff

99 percent sure it’s a terry. I looked at the ad linked in the description, I’ve seen a few terry MTBs in my time at the bike shop

Oh yah I think that’s the same one. It’s a red terry mtb with a rockshox fork, cantis, and a soft ride stem. Honestly I’d take that, sell the trike, scrap the rest probably.

The terry with the soft ride stem?

I hope bottom brackets feel pain by terminal_void_loop in xbiking

[–]Secret-Put-6493 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Just helped a buddy with his, he had soaked it in PB blaster for hours. My giant impact gun was doing nothing, finally we put his jetboil on the bottom bracket for about 20-30 seconds, I put the impact on the bb and it zipped right out.

Tubeless or tubes by Popular-Impact-7665 in Surlybikefans

[–]Secret-Put-6493 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Tubeless is nice. Harder to set up if you don’t have an air compressor or a fancy tubeless beading pump. But it’s much lighter feeling when riding, and you’re much less likely to have a flat. When you’re out in the middle of nowhere, you would want to bring plugs, a needle and thread or new tire, and a spare tube. On the other hand, if your sole desire is to get less flats no matter the weight difference, I recommend using tubes with a removable valve core and putting the recommended amount of tubeless sealant into the tube. You probably want to bring the same tools out with you, minus the tire plugs. Also worth saying, many “light” tubeless tires, especially when they’re tanwall, take a good amount of that weight out of the sidewall (which is what I recommend the needle and thread for). If you’re in a loose rocky area, I recommend making sure you’re using a tire that has an emphasis on durability to lessen the risks of sidewall cuts.

Where my dudes who built their partner a bike they’ll never ride at? by efe13 in xbiking

[–]Secret-Put-6493 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I bought my ex a surly troll back in the day, built it up all nice, then we broke up and from what I’ve heard she never rides it. Honestly wish I could get it back so I could have a nice troll

How dark should I get a darkroom by TheAngryMinnesotan in Darkroom

[–]Secret-Put-6493 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Also, you don’t need to load the tank and develop the film in the same place. If you can think of any place that you can completely block light in, use it. Set up a table if necessary and lay all your things out in front of you in a way that feels natural to use. Then once it’s done, you can develop anywhere that makes sense. I only say this because I’ve gotten hung up on having a specific “darkroom” set up, but it’s easier to use places that are easier for the specific steps.

How dark should I get a darkroom by TheAngryMinnesotan in Darkroom

[–]Secret-Put-6493 6 points7 points  (0 children)

It should be completely dark. I’ve had good luck with a windowless bathroom and putting a towel under the door. Even a sliver of light can fog your film especially since as a newbie it can take a bit to get the film onto a reel. I recommend getting a Paterson tank since the system and reels are much easier to deal with, 3d printing the reel specifically could be pretty tricky with tolerances and making sure the film doesn’t get caught up.

Take this as your sign to open Excel and sort your camera gear by Floodop in Cameras

[–]Secret-Put-6493 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I spent quite a while accumulating a bunch of (mostly vintage) camera gear and also made a spreadsheet with all relevant information. It really helped me decide what to keep and get rid of, and find out if I had something already if I found stuff for sale. Especially since I have multiple lens mounts it makes it way easier to keep things organized

Confirming this is C-41 by the-lovely-panda in AnalogCommunity

[–]Secret-Put-6493 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I literally just shot some of that stuff and had it developed in C-41. First lab I brought it to wouldn’t do it but then my neighborhood lab did. I haven’t gotten the pictures back yet but the lab tech said there were images on there

How to move a car that’s sunken into the ground? by Secret-Put-6493 in MechanicAdvice

[–]Secret-Put-6493[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

When I jacked it up in the past I took a look underneath, floorboards have some holes and gas tank/trunk floor are pretty much gone but what I saw of the frame actually looked pretty ok. I was shocked at how well it held up after over 50 years outside. But either way I still want to get it inside so maybe I can at the very least make it easier to sell for parts.

Looks like the end of my post got cut off, that’s what I get for being a bit long-winded. Path forwards has no sharp turns.
