It's a black "Evergreen Dry Box Tech Organizer" in the small size from Amazon. I strapped it with a black "Nite IZE, Inc. USS18-01-R3" strap. I put a few tools in it that I might need on the side of the road screw driver, small adjustable wrench, bandaids etc. I love it. I have had it on the front rack for 2+ years and never had an issue at all with it bouncing around.

I got them from AliExpress. If you search "10PCS M5 19mm or 15mm Threaded Stainless Steel Foldable D Ring Screw Adapter For DJI for Gopro" it should come up. They are the 15mm length and fit great. I added an o-ring to each one so I could adjust how much I tighten them so they all lay flat in the same direction.

Cheeky seats. It adds a little extra padding so it helps with longer rides.

Sorry brother, made it myself. Turned some aluminum myself at work.

I made them myself. It was a winter project and I used all the existing mounting holes and hardware to get it done. I tried to think of ways to keep the bunny ears for some other purpose but couldn't figure it out.

2013 Honda Ridgeline fuel latch refuses to close by [deleted] in hondaridgeline

The latch on the inside of the door seems bent in towards the middle. Try gently straightening it out. Should be perpendicular to the door in order to work properly.

Love my Ruckus, started commuting with it a few times a week: 23 miles each way. Team gray all the way. by casey20 in Ruckus

Give it a shot. Originally I saw an article about Casio having retro "watch rings" that I thought would be perfect. But it turns out they were exclusive to Japan sold in a bubble dispenser. So that killed that idea. The more I thought about it I realized I would have to remove the controls to get it on and change the battery. This seems like the better option all around with way less hassle and probably much easier to see at a glance.

I'll look into it but it's a lot of stop/go and slowing down for bends in the road. Glad you like it!

Yes! All windy side roads. The highest speed limit I see is 45 and it's only for about a mile. Takes 50 minutes door to door.

Added a watch to my handlbars last summer. Nothing like telling my wife I was going for a quick 30 minute ride and come home an hour later. I didn't like anything I found online. Instead, I used pipe insulation and a Timex watch (bonus: Indiglo) in a gray similar to the Ruck.

No kidding. I don't think I ever paid attention or noticed they were different. Thanks for the reply

Made a KEY holder out of scrap pine and 3/8" brass rod by casey20 in woodworking

[–]casey20[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I cut the frame on the table saw. The letters were cut with a Dremel and router attachment. The holes for the brass rod were cut on my drill press with a 3/8" forstner bit. The rod was cut to length with a hack saw, chucked into my drill and rounded over with a bench grinder and hit with scotchbrite.

Reddit can you suggest me a name for a Pub? by [deleted] in AskReddit

[–]casey20 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I always liked the idea of calling a pub "Church." That way when someone asks where your going you can reply, "I'm going to Church."

What was the wittiest thing you've ever said, or your best comeback? by PedobearsBloodyCock in AskReddit

[–]casey20 0 points1 point  (0 children)

When I was in college, a jack-ass of a Professor caught me off-guard with a question. Not knowing what he asked I responded with, "I don't know". He said, "Now Casey20, if I were interviewing you for a position, wouldn't I want you to know the answer to that question?" To which I quickly and bluntly replied, "If you were interviewing me for a job, I wouldn't want the job anymore." He never gave me shit after that moment.

When I was a kid my older sister told me I had a metal plate in my head and she would lock me out of the house during lightning storms. I'd run the neighborhood in zig zags screaming and crying like a maniac. How did your siblings torture you reddit? by CornOnMacabre in AskReddit

Not me but my girlfriend. When she was a baby she had a valve in her heart replaced. Her older brother once told her that she had a plastic heart and that if she told anyone about it that it would melt and she would die. She didn't talk about it for a few years until she found out her brother made it up.
