A complete standard wheelbase rc4wd Mojave body and a lwb cab. I would’ve gotten a complete lwb body but my lhs couldn’t order one.

The build it’s for uses the lwb cab and the standard bed

Hope that works for you and you don't have to get surgeried again. Too close to hunting season.

Side note: You should only run if someone or something is chasing you!

Thanks buddy. I'm really hoping no surgery either. That shit was expensive AF ten years ago, I don't want to think about what it would cost these days. I'm actually skipping hunting season this year. Between game lease fees, and out of state license it's just too much money that I can put towards moving. Then next year, I can just buy in state license and only pay my game lease fees.

LOL, I actually enjoy running these days oddly enough. Just not in this podunk crap hole.

Yeah, yeah, you said that before. My statement stands.

So I got a Bat-Safe. It's kinda meh. Had a hard time feeding the balance cable, it was too short to have the charger on the angled part of the stand. Safe, I guess...whatever.

I'll say one thing, if it had come through my lab it would have failed the UL sharp edge test immediately and gone back to the engineers. Had to file every edge down on the stand, and the pass thru for the wires was tricky to navigate without losing blood.

Like most things, will probably serve its purpose but could've been better executed. Once the Venom ProDuo shows up it's going to be another challenge running multiple wires through.

^^^ I'm starting to think that those things are pretty cool. I don't worry about my packs but that thing certainly would give me more piece of mind if I was to randomly think about my packs while I was away from home for an extended amt of time. Thanks for the unbiased review!

Btw... If you choose not to use it, you could always attach a handle to it and give it to some kid to use for a super-menacing lunch box! I'll bet that thing would clear a cafeteria as quick as a wink... especially if it was smoking lol!

Like I'd said in another thread, I don't have a "good" place to charge...no concrete floored garage, etc. I have to charge on my work desk in the dining room, so in the rare event that Murphy showed up (he has assigned parking at my house) and a cell did let go I'd have a problem quickly.

I charge on my electric range top. If I was really paranoid, I would charge in the oven.

I have started to hoard parts for my computer upgrade.
So this fell into my lap today.


500 Gb hard drive for my C: and favorite programs.
2 X 8 Gb ram ( 3600 MHZ )
3 X pimped RGB fans, i will just run them in 1 color at the time i think maybe oscillate between orange and yellow ( in my flat black case )




Will probably pick up more parts tomorrow at the post office.

always done all my 1:1 and rc wrenching by hand. decided to pick up a little electric screw driver after assembling my rock rey kit.
did a bunch of research and pick this one out.

had variable speed, led light, battery indicator, battery lasts 18 months, magnetic chuck, fast charger (also my android charger would work), 2 year warranty, and can swivel and turn into a straight driver, instead of pistol grip.
turns out Lowes had the best price online at $29, and then say my local store had them instock.
https://www.lowes.com/pd/BLACK-DECKE...river/50419272





swivieled/straight




also picked up MIP metric speed set





got driver home, and despite it being listed as a 0-190 RPM motor, it is NOT variable speed , just on/off. i was ok with it not having a clutch if i could control speed. so well see how it works out. i have no plans to drive it to the bottom, so it might work out, still gonna final tighten them by hand.

I just use my cordless drill that does have a clutch. Started doing that after having to service a 1/5 scale for the first time. I can still feel the hand cramps when I think about it. LOL

Best thing for the shoulder yet. Seriously though, after some research, I started really stretching it yesterday and today, and it feels a lot better than it did. And if there is something serious, I guess I'll find out on my next MTB ride.

Ritas are my favorite! (already had OJ in the fridge)

Two years ago I couldn't lift my right arm as high as my shoulder, was sure I was looking at rotator cuff surgery. Got a cortisone shot...has been like new ever since.

Tequila is good too, but at least get some good stuff...Cuervo is to tequila what Thunderbird is to wine!

I'll keep that in mind if another week or two of stretching doesn't take care of things, thanks!

The silver actually isn't bad man, even for shots. Besides, it's being mixed anyway so I'm not paying for Patron to drown it in mix. Cabo silver used to be my go to, but can't find it here in podunk anymore.
