i spent 1000 on my tools at work and got given 1400 bucks worth from the government for being an apprentice, wtf do you need so many tools for??

yeah, the government grants came into effect when I was in my 3rd yr.

no tool grants.

no rta allowances.

I was one of the last who done it tough.

had no missus and didn't go out.

thought tools were a wiser investment than wasting in a car.

I was right, been through about 6-10 cars since, still have the tools.

and so many tools, to make life easier.

instead of doing things the hard way, the right tool can make a big difference.

Which Kmart?

If they is that cheap I'm getting me one ASAP

What sort of brakes do they have?

Oh and Senic drive Merewether or Yule road or Mermorial drive Bar Beach or King Edward Park for down hill skids

Ha, it's not too hard either, that was like my 3-4th go.. Pretty average, but need to find some better spots

[Ruxis]

waratah had 5 on friday and i got 1 of them.

might have to wait till next week or just shop around for the better "green machine" tyres cause 2 kmarts didnt have them in so i got the last 2 from toys r us.

there could be other costs like the seat may break after time, but if you got a school seat and bolted that on itd be sweet, and if you want to get real good all the 80km/h guys get pumped up tyres and put pvc pipe over them and bearings and bigger axles etc, but i cant see anything being expensive to fix/dodgy up

[Ruxis]

oh and brakes is just the 2 pads on the rim like a bicycle, not heaps good, i just tightened mine though and its MUCH better.

but think about it, its only metal and bicycle parts, everything is cheap and easy

[Ruxis]

haha and right on queue, was out the front of mine on the thin foot path for a bit more of a slope, drifted round a corner and didnt go round hard enough, hit the raised grass and it tried to throw me out, heard a slight crack,

seat has a small crack in it now which will probably get bigger haha, anyone good with fibre glass? thinking of just reinforcing this one cause its pretty comfy.

and mounting it a bit better.

may have to start a build thread hahahahahahahhaha

[m.j.h]

J-Rad I think I still got some fibreglass stuff here in the shed if you want that

The other thing you can do is go to Withworths or Bias and get a fibreglass repair kit, just make sure you get some 400gsm matting as the 200gsm is crap and a waste of time. As for making it stronger some plywood or always works well but fibreglassing is piss easy just have to mix the resin and catalyst in the correct ratio

[Ruxis]

thinking of getting a school seat now, just cause the stock seat is flimsy. though school seat will look cheap haha.

[m.j.h]

If you put a few more layers of glass on the whole seat it should stiffen it up a lot more

I will be disapointed if u dont get a bucket seat of some sort and mount it to it, just saying.

[Ruxis]

Haha my mate just offered me his old go kart seat, will probably get that, but it's a snug fit for me so big guys may have to get there own trike

Sale ends Wednesday!
