You can get them at almost any truck repair shop. They typically have a pallet or two of them stacked up out back. They're sold to metal recyclers, but the per unit amount is almost nothing, due to current ferrous metal prices. Offer them a few bucks for them, and they should be yours.

Those are 6 lug drums, so the poster is either from a non-unimount country, or those aren't class 8 brake drums off a semi, which are 10 lug, which means you can find them substantially larger, thicker, and heavier.

OP, mount it under a false cowl on your hood. It'll be easier to target SUV drivers.

That's cute as a button.

Call up a CB shop in the states, and tell them you want them to build a stryker radio for you, stupid powerful and all. This should solve your problem, but I'm not usre why niggers would be listening to am band radio. The UK is a strange and awkward place.

I'm glad radiofag showed up. I keep sending people over here from /o/, and wasn't even sure he was still around.

Get one of the later dot matrix printers, or a portable typewriter. Lots of duplicate parts in both for faster modeling.

I learned on a gym mat. 5 years of that still permanently fucked up my neck, and made me lose 2" of height.

You could use it to upholster/reupholster some chairs you have.

Also, if you have enough space in your metal tool boxes, you can lay it on the bottom under a rag to cut down on some of the clanging that goes on in there.

Those tablets you got as atalented /diy/erwere probably just compacted sodium bicarbonate. Eat a spoonful and report back on the similarities.

If you know anything about chemistry, you can calculate the stoichiometric ratio between your reactants, then test it with titration to correct for errors caused by low purity/poor reaction conditions/et all.

Where are you?

Landscape timbers are the most worry free approach, as warping and cracking won't really be a concern until the dog is dead/nearly dead, and the dog can't easily tear it apart.

Why that container?

Yes, you can use a bike pump. Look around instructables and you'll find rechargeable aerosol cans that use epoxy and a schrader valve. Same concept.

The oxygen in the atmospheric air is negligible if you're using the cream fairly immediately. After a day or two you'll either start to lose pressure, or start oxidizing the cream, or both.

For your "fizz mix", just isolate the CO2 gas, then compress it into the liquid. No need to react in the same vessel as your drink. Fermentation would likely be an easier solution.

Not as good as using gas with your MiG welder.

You're going to end up welding the tip shut, stressing the feed motor, and unspooling the wire way more than you would if you ponied up $45 for a bottle of gas and some hose.

Soup with dumplings. Usually eat about 3 quarts over a day.

I carried a fuse, crunch, and squirt with me for almost half a decade. Still have them kicking around, but I've replaced them with a toolbag full of high quality tools now that I'm not running around all day.

I still reach for them when I notice a loose screw. You're probably going to fuck up all the screw bits if you use them regularly at all.

A decent truck stop will also have a cupholder you can mount in your window channels. They could easily be modified to accept the goufs, and I have used them to hold over 4lbs each for almost a year without failing in a semi.

>gouf cupholders
BACK THE FUCK UP
Where did you get them?

Go to any truck stop and get some slip-free pads. They keep shit from sliding around, even on sloped surfaces.

Either that, or just epoxy them to your dash. It isn't like they won't increase the value of the car.

RTV silicone. Get a two part mix so it doesn't take 2 weeks to cure and warp in the process.

I own and operate a trucking business. Work whatever days/times I want within the law, and spend most of the day fucking around on the internet, honestly.

>inb4 hurr durr no car
A tractor isn't a car. Man the fuck up. Get together $15,000USD, and you're good to get started with a lease agreement and some decent financing.

Solid core gromex strips pretty easily between two pinch rollers if you can make an incision in the insulation beforehand, assuming you took the individual wires out of the casing beforehand. When I'm casting copper out of scrap wire, I usually do it with a 3lb sledge and a bench grinder. Just run the wire back and forth ocer the stone on one side until I hit copper, and a few impacts with the hammer, and the insulation comes off like corn husk.

About $85,000 less the cost of land, permits, and most materials and labor beyond the actual arrangement and securement.

I dabbled in blacksmithing by age 12, and had solid experience in carpentry by age 8.

How young is a young'un?
