The way my threads have been going today I have some off the cuff comments about the cat on your face but I'll keep them to myself. Your thread has gotten back on track so we'll keep it that way.

The tire looks wicked! You've inspired me to ask Santa for a printer at Xmas. I won't know how to use it but it will be fun to watch it melt weed eater string into blobs.

Looks like a great mustache hu? Although not at the theme park, no rides available. Oh derailed again, guess I'll have to scroll up a bit and watch the video again. Lol!!

For me, the printer is inside the house and not in garage, out of sight out of mind. Several times I have sat in garage thinking how nice it would be if I could just whip up some complex/simple part,,,,,, and then I remember ,,,I can,,,,, I just have to re learn how to use the design program. I did switch to autodesk fusion 360. It's a trial for 30 days and then 300$ a year, cloud based stuff but does all the things the 3000$ software does that I would need. But....., another thing I have to learn. A lot of features, definately have been watching a few tutorials and realizing if I can get a pretty good working knowledge I would be set and able to make whatever I need.

Come on, you've got this far so make up a tubeless tire! Think of all the money saved on liquid rubber. I've seen where guys have glued Clod tires to the rims and inserted valve stems. If you could put a metal ring in the bead area and cast around it you'd be set! Honestly speaking, how much harder would it be to cast a hollow tire and run a tube? Think about the tires Dad's Garage used on his haul truck. Tubes are available cheap about the size you would need. Probably better to cast solid rubber but how cool would it be to make your own pneumatic tires?
