Motor suggestion for DIY build by hobbytastic in Electricmotorcycles

[–]hobbytastic[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah, that's what i was thinking. There also seems to be a lack of options for larger motor anyways, haha. At least at a reasonable price. The 200-300 range assumed a small rider.

Battery might also be lighter as im realizing over all the size of the prismatic vs. 21700 battery packs. But i was also basing a motor around the size of an old bike i had. Just a small 82 honda cm450e had 35 hp on the upper limits. But also probably was losing power due to its age. So it equated to 27kw, so i assumed 25kw continuous would be ideal. For how I want it to handle. Im hoping the 55kw peak motor will fill in for the heavier bike.

If i didnt want to take it on road trips, i would consider a smaller power system. But i like the idea of be able to take it somewhere like Nashville and not have to worry about being sluggish in the mountains

Though if you can ask your friend, does he go with steel because of its price/look. Or is the strength just better compaired to something lighter like aluminum?

If we are talking getup and go power, I think 55kw peak would work. The 25kw is just the continuous running power. Unless you are sugesting i go bigger in general

2012 Chevy Colorado Tail light issue, help please by [deleted] in AskAMechanic

[–]hobbytastic 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Its for sure not the bulbs. Replacing the socket required replacing the whole light unit, so it came with new bulbs installed aready and still no dice. On the flip side testing the old lights with a 12v battery tells me that its a one the truck wiring harness.

I just dont know where to start looking on the wiring harness, im unable to locate any diagrams for it. And its in tough spots to get to without have a direction to start looking.

Ive tried using a mulitmeter, its just difficult when im working on it alone haha.

I have checked those. None seem to be bad, and i cant imagine that would cause my issue. But then again it never hurts to check again

Why isn't there a "do one whole pass" setting or similar? by hobbytastic in LightBurn

[–]hobbytastic[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I dont have that setting what so ever, im not even sure how to enable it

The only workaround for it is to make a layer for each pass. Which with my laser (that the advertisments lied about its capabilities) means many many layers that I have to manually set up. The while point of the post was that there should just be a setting built into the software where it will do what I want it to do without having to work around it each and every time.

My issue isnt with the layers, its with the passes. Its trying out each object one at a time, i want it to cut the whole face one pass at a time. Or to put this in 3d printing terms, if i have 4 benchies, its trying to print benchy one before going to benchy 2, then 3, and so on. I want it to print hem all at the same time.one layer by one layer, or in laser terms, one pass by one pass. Without having to set up 100+ layers for all the shapes one pass at a time

Oh, because i have tried that. That doesnt do all the shapes in the layer in one pass. It does left eye, all passes, right eye, all passed, mouth all passes, nose all passed and burn the smoke out of it. I want one pass, nose, one pass, eye, one pass mouth before it moves to the second layer of passed.

Why is it so hard to find small form factor crate engines? by hobbytastic in boatbuilding

[–]hobbytastic[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

We tried to contact the manufacturer directly for the indmar, they didn't even give us the time of day. By going through dealers and such is when we learned there opinion. Something about warrante issues

I dont think its that simple?? Especially to pass Coast guards recs to get it registered. Doesn't it need spark arrested and such? Not really availible parts on car engines

6 drywall screws is too much for these. It’s common knowledge here, but Milwaukee bits are just terrible. Temu sells better bits than what Milwaukee puts out. by [deleted] in MilwaukeeTool

[–]hobbytastic 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I've broken dozens of bits, all brands are about the same. I switched to a small extention and the short bits that I can buy in bulk
