    Rust removal and electroplating?

    I can second the Evaporust. Works great without removing any metal. Bought it online but see it is available at Builders now?

    Career and life advice .

    Taking a risk can be done in different ways. On the one hand you can take a risk and apply for a job. Just a no answer if the risk does not work out. You can resign and start your own business. If that does not work then you are in financial crisis.

    Career and life advice .

    "what you want from your career" I think most will not really figure out what they want. "the right people to help you get there" Yes definitely. Might be roll model. Might be just your boss: People tend to complain rather than seeing it from their view. If you can think and act a bit more...

    This might be a good example of continual education on a personal level as opposed to a course or degree type of learning. Ways to improve yourself and your life bit by bit.

    Disclaimer: I have a degree. But I also feel it is not the answer for many. Continual education is in my opinion better. Even if you have a degree it does not stop there and you have to keep on improving yourself. Take small steps and keep on learning. It does not have to be formal courses...

    And what are you doing about it? Sounds a harsh question but think about it a bit. Sounds like you are thinking too much about the negatives and not the positives. Think about small positive things and they will start growing. I don't think anyone starts off successful. There is always a...

    Stock update....

    A general question: If it has all the parts and is a good runner then why break it up for parts? Surely there must be some guys interested in buying the bike as a whole.

    The not-so-handy handyman and other randomness

    Daai pienk silinder aan die linkerkant lyk soos 'n R410a. R410a werk met 'n hoer druk so die staal behoort dikker te wees as jy van hulle in die hande kan kry.

    The not-so-handy handyman and other randomness

    R134a in non flammable. Should not be a problem. For safety you could fill it with water to displace leftover gas. It is heavier than air so you should leave it upside down. But the valve is a one way valve I think, so it will block natural venting and you have to remove it or drill it out...

    How do you have your nuts?

    From a mechanical view I just cant fit the nut tight under the cap. At some point you remove the cap to inflate the tyre. Now the nut is slightly loose. Very few are going to turn the nut down, tighten the cap, and then turn the nut back up. Thus you might end with a cap that tightens against...
