Mad modding? He does it!
« on: January 25, 2012, 03:18:28 AM »
*Warning* car and car audio related content in link below!

This is one of the coolest things i've seen for quite a while! I have some trouble with him using a wood router for a lot of things for which it isn't designed, but he seems happy so there you go. Can't help but think what he could've done with a really good machineshop: http://www.audiogroupforum.com/csforum/showthread.php?t=66958

Great work. Never thought to fasten work to wood backing plate for polishing,
makes the whole post worth it, regards the router 'if it works and doesnt kill
you whats the problem"?

Thanks for that link. Believe it or not I went and read through the whole post. That is one talented gentleman. If he can do all that with his hands and a router then imagine what he could do if he had a fully equipped shop. He sure does some beautiful work.  :D :D

Cheers  :beer:

My right index finger is pretty scarred after a small accident with a router. He several times mentiones that he is very happy to have his fingers. That's my problem with that. I still believe in people looking after themselves, so his choice, but in my opinion what he does is outright dangerous and i want to stress that.
Besides that, it's his hands and his life, so he does whatever he so pleases. And damn fine he does it too!

I think that chap should be snapped up by either BMW or some fancy Italian outfit  for his design skills alone. Modding cars ain't my thing but this fella sure has a flare for it and the car looks a million bucks and i too read the 106 page thread from start to finish. I suspect he goes through a few routers in a year. :drool: :drool:
If you cant fix it, get another hobby.
