Weight can be easly be overcome with kevlar. 70 cents a lb. For steel! Ouch! Pacific steel recycled charged me 30 cents just a couple months ago and they got all sorts of cool stuff. I'm thinking this platform could benefit from some armor but again is obviously not a tank. Can you buy tanks?

Do u mean to say there is no slip allowed in his links?:razz : any spring sprung axle when it is being compressed is going to move towards the shackle side of the spring. In other words the distance of a fixed point on the frame (your link ends) to the axle (where link ends are mounted) is...

Yeah at 45 a square foot the Kevlar stuff I posted about can stop m14 fire multiple hits. Not cheap but not insane either. They have some stuff around 20 a square that will stop pistol calibers as well. 10k windshield!!! Maybe ill drive via periscope instead!

Try this place for bulletproof stuff ArmorCo UL-8 ( SuperShield ) Fiberglass Panel I have been thinking about doing the same thing for inexplicable reasons cause I live in the unpopulated west end of Nebraska. I've not had great luck with finding pricing on bulletproof glass and if found I...

If you can afford it centrifuge a wmo and ATF mix. I think the cheapest you can go for a centrifuge is 650 or so. Its my understanding that it is common to have a centrifuge on larger diesel fired boats/yachts and that these can be had used for less then other options. Other people here will...

Sweet truck but did u ever add any slip to those traction Bars? I may have just missed it, did you use a shackle up front or some kind of slip section? I've thought about doing something similiar with the two links. I just wonder if the axle might 'dogleg" too much during articulation.

I have to report about one near boom using this conversion process. Guy filled a tin paint can with plastic waste smacked the lid on tight, heated it up to 400c over a propane burner and had a 1/2 inch steel pipe stuck in it to catch the fuel. Seems the can swelled up and nearly burst (who'd a...

Thirty pages in and your head will be swimming! After I get moved into my new house I'm gonna start scratching together a system to crack me some fuel.

Actually you do. Due to the different tempratures that different hydrocarbon chains move into a gaseous form based on there length. This allows separation of diesel kerosene gasoline and even lighter liquid fuels. You can use a simple catalyst and different temperatures to change the ratio of...

The guys in that thread have been having lots of success with converting pp and pe plastics into fuel products primarily heavier oily diesel like products. Some use a wmo base heated to 160 degrees Celsius then add the plastic which will melt. The significance of that is you don't have to use...

Wow... it's really not such a big deal... as long as you insure that the reactor you build is airtight there is no issue of exploding. Even then when a few guys have had small leaks no booms have happened. Don't knock it just to knock it. There is a process fettered to in the thread I posted...

Here is a very current and detailed thread were a number of guys are converting plastic, wmo, etc... into diesel and gasoline. I'm gonna try it I'm sure regular diesel has more power then wmo and is probably easier on the motor(or use to cut your regular emo) but that parts just opinion. Enjoy...
