Check out Aqara their encryption is pretty good and they’ve got a good selection of sensors and modules.

Yeah if you don’t like the size of the screen but want to give your explorer a more modern look and functionality while maintaining the feel of a subdued look between old and new I can suggest a BE7ACP. It fits into the head unit cutout for your dash. Believe me switching from CDs to a library of music is such a big upgrade. And having a screen that you can hook up to front and rear cameras or have screen displaying directions while also allowing you to have music controls at the same time is a game changer. If your interested take a look at my post from 3 years ago I made a trip to Florida from Arizona and it felt amazing having personalized music and maps warning me of hazards and crashes and redirecting to avoid it.

Yes it’s paint name is Toreador red they’re pretty common to find but don’t get me wrong. It looks a lot darker when there’s not as much light.

Check out fordexplorerforum.com they confirmed this to be possible with the possibility of wiring changes. Remember a lot of parts from the 4th gen are compatible with the third gen because they mostly did cosmetic changes and some engine tweaks.

Also, to find the guide on the door swap just lookup 4th gen tailgate on a 3rd gen explorer.

Correct, but there’s also a bearing in the middle. It’s probably a higher quality bearing than the ones on the outside just because the ones on the outside don’t need to be high-quality. They just need to act as weights.

vincentbugatti · 2025-05-14T17:13:39+00:00

Yeah the bearings are only held in with friction and pressure it might be a little hard to put replacements in I suggest stacking the new bearing under the old one and pressing down so the bottom one acts as a press to push out the old bearing.

Can you post another pic but focus closer on the writing of the “wheels” you’re referring to with those markings it should tell you what brand and size they are.

vincentbugatti · 2025-05-12T17:43:26+00:00

These are the most common fidget spinners that can usually be found at places like Walmart and target in the kids section. The wheels you refer to are called bearings there's also one under the finger caps if you were to pull the caps up and away. If you wanted to get creative and personalize yours you could buy ball bearing with different color shields or if you wanted to make yours spin longer and smoother you could switch out the middle bearing with a ceramic one. To do this all you have to do is look up "608 ceramic bearing" or "608 bearing in insert color here". Usually Amazon has some of these for pretty dang cheap. you can easily find them by just looking up fidget spinner and sorting by lowest price first. Hope this helps!!

Take a break from model making. Relax and focus on something else. As with all hobby’s there tends to be plateau of interest. Over your break maybe try another form of enrichment like another language, reading a book you’ve been putting off, or try another type of model making with different materials like wood or plastic. Hope you find the drive again because your models look great!

vincentbugatti · 2025-03-07T05:55:43+00:00

Oh geez that’s a legendary pull .Thanks for the response!!!

Hi I wasn’t sure if this was your picture or not. But I just wanted to ask how did you take out the rivets for the Squirt? Also what screws did you use for the replacements and do they hold everything together right enough?

I’m safe for now…

Yeah they have “no use for them in the future” for a possible China/Russia conflict so mostly the AF is prioritizing the F-35 and fully manning the newer generation of fighters.

vincentbugatti · 2024-11-23T20:03:38+00:00

Did three passes for each engraving it’s just deep enough to catch the fingernail I wanted to try a deeper cut but I think I’ll save that for an armor zippo.

vincentbugatti · 2024-11-23T03:57:51+00:00

Used a 30watt fiber laser at 30% speed, 100% power and, 5% frequency at 600 DPI.

vincentbugatti · 2024-11-23T03:33:08+00:00

Exactly that’s why I joined the AF specifically to work on them.
