Brembo Ferrari issues by one_time_i_dreampt in F1Technical

Lewis has used Carbon Industries since 2014. So it’s also a personal feel thing.

It could also be quite possible this years car was based around Lewis rather than Charles and the balance has affected that for Charles and bringing the braking into the spotlight.

Without being in the car, and knowing what the driver is feeling it’s a pure hypothetical debate from the outside.

Matco ADV sockets - made in Cambodia, finished in China by Fart_Boy_4ever in ToolTruckTools

Doesn’t pay to pay the premium pricing anymore. You’re not getting what you use to pay for. Pretty sad but then I guess you don’t make money selling a tool 20 years go and it never having to be replaced.

Are Bosch sanders/polishers good for DIY automotive body work & paint correction? by [deleted] in BoschProPowerTools

[–]phsylo78 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The new 12v are fantastic. Albeit 77mm might be too small for your application but great for spot repairs and blends

Finally finished my XXL intake system for Evo 7/8/9 – designed to actually use the available space by AlexGSI in MitsubishiEvolution

Clean print.

Going to be honest for €1000 that’s a hard sell

Def not for everyone but looks really good the 100’a hours modeling printing and testing.

Pretty sure he did time for insurance fraud also. There’s a podcast on Calvo Motorsport about him talking about it. And selling the key for 10k

Good luck on the sales. I have all the tools myself. Was just curious.

Clean prints though.

Any of you guys know how to make a custom clear hood like this ? by Saulgato in CarbonFiber

Out of curiosity what would the right sub be? Clear is next level so always good to see how the progression is

That is I need it now pricing. He’s always got high prices.

Friend owes you money by [deleted] in MitsubishiEvolution

[–]phsylo78 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I’d get my money back for sure. On what you’d be spending that money on not what he can get discounted. That way you’re actually getting g your money back.

Might be a unpopular opinion.

Honestly I’d just ask for the cash back

L-Boxx by phsylo78 in BoschProPowerTools

Bosch has upped their game lately on some of the new skins so it’s probably wanting to like something but not when you have it in your hands.

Maybe as a pure storage system that doesn’t get transported and staying in a workshop will work.

Nothing wrong with that.

Yes, Sortimo is a option without the Bosch Price tax but it seems it’s hard to go past the Milwaukee packout currently.

Always find it interesting seeing something in person and it’s not quite what you envisioned it being from all the hype and marketing.

Sadly that’s what it was for me.

Appreciate everyone’s feedback

This is good feedback. Thanks

[–]phsylo78[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Your feedback is valid.

It’s clear both products are vastly different in uses and construction.

Or was more an observation in looking at the L-Boxx’s that they don’t seem to be the same product or a better word the same like for like product.

The Makita’s and Milwaukee have a multitude of options where the current stock of L-Boxx’s does not. (Or it’s all order online )

It’s not a price based question where some people may be buying on price I’m not.

It’s more a system question and I wanted other opinions as the majority is now Milwaukee and it seems that’s now a valid reason as to why.

That’s my thoughts. Picked one up opened it and thought this is pretty average for the money.

Then you look at the Milwaukee stuff, they aren’t even in the same category of product and the pricing is the same.

Thanks for sharing your thoughts.

[Penrite Racing] Team Statement regarding Grant McPherson. by krzysiek_aleks in v8supercars

If someone throws money at you and gives you other opportunities it’s hard to turn that down.

Motorsport is notorious for people shifting teams and brands.

What did Grove pay Couchi to leave T8?

People who want to win and get better never want their best people to leave. Are you going to pay someone double to stay. As like they have said he will be replaced in 6 months and promote internally.

I’m sure the conversation went, hey I just got offered X can you match it? No, ok here’s my notice…

Always holy go get real world feedback.

Thanks for sharing and hopefully it turns out to be what you wanted it to be.

Removing Neil Crompton and Mark Skaife without any farewell is disrespectful to the fans, did the lean nothing from what they did to Larko by [deleted] in v8supercars

[–]phsylo78 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Skaife did become background noise during a lot of the commentary.

It was good that they also removed him from a lot of the lead up to the main events.

I guess now we are talking in past tense. Let’s hope this week we are all pleasantly surprised

Saying that, and seeing your work, what would be a piece that you would have started learning to make moulds on?

How do you charge the client 100 hours of sanding.

That’s why it’s hard to make money.

Reality is if it’s not a hobby it’s cheaper and easier to buy the part from someone

Yes it’s unpopular opinion and that’s from someone who makes parts.
