I recently made a set of bus burs for my new front battery bank, and I was just wondering if anyone has any tips on polishing them? I got steel wool, 1000 grit wet/dry paper, rubbing compound, and some Wenol all purpose metal polish. I was told I just need to hit them with the steel wool, and then polish them up. So, is that it? Is there anything else, should I use a buffer, of just do it by hand? Do I let the polish dry, then buff it out? And what about wet sanding them, is that good a or bad idea? All help is appreciated. Here are some pics of said bus bars... Thanks again for your help!

Hmm, I think each amp would be seing .25 that way. But hey, with the maxx link, it just may still do it.... Let us know how it turns out. But remember, if you do try it, your risking something getting fried. So is the risk worth the reward? Btw if it were me, I'd probably try it too. I'd just be extra super careful. And IMHO I believe they will protect. But hey, I wish you luck!

Trade for 4 bnib Skar vvx 15's?

Thanks guys, I really appreciate all your help! I'll post up a new thread with pics and what not as soon as I get started making them. But first, I gotta get a new front batt trey built first so I'll know exact dimensions. Thanks again guys!

Hell yeah man, thanks! That is exactly what I was looking for!

Cool, thanks guys! And what about drill bits? Are there a particular kind of bits I need to use?

Okay cool thanks. Dad's got a drill press I can use. But where can I get some thicker aluminum? I got the thickest they had at Lows yesterday

Okay, so I picked up some aluminum yesterday, and I wanna try to make some bus bars for my front batts. My plan is to move my rear batt to the front, and connect the two with bus bars. Then it will be easier to run wire to the rear bank. My question is, what is best to drill it with? And, what should I use to polish it up? And, did I get the right aluminum? It's 1/4" x 1", is that thick enough? Thanks fellas EDIT: Here are some pics of the finished product. I'm happy with the way they turned out. Thanks guys!

Lol! 10 10 10 twinkies on her titty bitch...

Looks sexy... But like N8 said, what's she clamp at?

Hey peeps, got an idea, so I wanted to see if I could find some solo x 12's to try out in the box I have for the L5's. Please let me know if you have, or know of anything. I'd prefer the 07 models, but it doesn't really matter, as they will most likely be re-coned anyway. Thanks in advance!

Tuned in! I guess we both will be running 4 Skar 15's... Cool! Can't wait to see what's in store!

Will, thank you so much for sharing your experience! I didn't get to make it again this year, but thanks to you, I still feel like I was there! Thanks again! Oh and btw, I really like those Cowboy earrings! I think this will be our year! Go Dallas!!!!

Me too...

Bump!

Bump I still got this box, and I'm considering just keeping it, cause it is a beast! I can't help but wonder how three solo x 12's would do in it, off my 5K... If someone wants it, you better buy it before I start collecting solo x's......

Sounds like your mind is already made up.... I personally would run the 4 at .5, but that's just me.... Good luck and let us know how it all plays out!

Gotcha. Yeah, I can get him the exact same one he had BNIB for about $220 tax and all. Probably stupid not to just do that. Thanks guys!

Hmm, well I was actually gonna buy an external HD for him anyway. What if I got him that dvd drive, and pick up a 1tb ext. HD. Would that work? Or would I still need to replace the internal HD for windows to run from??? Sorry guys, I am a semi stupid when it comes to this stuff..... But hey I'm learning! That's why I'd kinda like to fix this. I can easily just buy another netbook, they are stoopid cheap now. But I'd like to learn a thing or two, if I can..... Thanks again for the replies and suggestions!

No, it doesn't really make any noise, it's pretty quiet. And I guess it's your typical Netbook, w/ 120g HD, and single core AMD processor. No cd or dvd rom No, it just ran out in January, FML!!! That's kinda what I was thinking. And since I don't have an external dvd drive, I'm probably gonna be better off to just buy him a new netbook, huh? Thanks for the help guys!

Well my 13 yr old son has a ASUS Netbook, and the other day, he dropped it on the hardwood floor. Now it wont load windows, when you try to start it, it just goes to a blank screen. It will let me run the memory diag. tool, but it won't show me the results, since it won't load windows, and the results are given after restart. I'm no computer expert, and I have never worked on anything but a tower. But I'd really like to try to fix this before just running out and buying a new one. I tent to think there is something wrong with the hard drive now, but it could be something else. So, does anyone know where to start? Thanks for any help, I appreciate it guys!

Dont got the money for it Yeah right, MarioB has all the money.... Tuned in for results!

Congrats man! I can't wait to heat hear this beast in person!

Crystal Meth is a helluva drug.... Ruined a lot of lives... Have you guys seen how badly it ages the ones who use it? Yeah I'm glad they busted those people.... Hope they get 20 years!
