Yep, solid metal, and just a little smaller than an airgun pellet.

Hive Mind - What are these?

I have a mystery. I keep finding these things on the kitchen floor near the back door for the past few weeks, and no idea where they are coming from or what they are. Either the cats are bringing them in, or my better 3/4 is trying to sabotage the midnight fridge raids. Anyone have any clues? IMG-77...

The stainless rivets destroyed my "Heavy Duty" rivet gun without even managing one.

Had to appeal to a friendly neighbour who bought out the big guns.

Re: Yoshimura Dual-Outlet Refurb & Repack

There's obviously been some fuckery going on previously, but once together it's all good, so no big concerns. IMG-7552.jpg The Yoshi repack kit comes now as dual-stage, so has a stiffer outer sheet, and the normal fibre-glass packing. The outer sheet is handy as it can be used as a former for the pa...

Yoshimura Dual-Outlet Refurb & Repack

Got a Yoshi dual-outlet off ebay, from Greece of all places. My favourite anecdote from Greece was when heading towards Athens airport in a taxi and being passed by some 1000cc sports-bike going at +120mph with the rider in T-shirt and shorts. Zero fucks given. :o So these exhausts can go for big bu...
