  1. http://www.stevemeadedesigns.com/board/topic/159238-mariobs-tomb-of-boom/
  2. do have pics. On a camera with no cord and a laptop that won't see the card. Fuck it. Pix later. Lets just say it went faster once I got out the 8 lb sledge, 4 ft pry-bar and the sawzall
  3. The lambo doors are actually pretty nice when working in the shop. Just have to keep an eye on the bottom door edge when getting in and out Nothing to show today but an order from US Composites
  4. Shit, Frankie and those guys are in a league of their own. They have been at this for a very long time. I only hope to get half as loud as those guys
  5. Holy fucking crammed trunk. I forgot just how tight it was hooking everything up. Even less fun disarming the bass bomb
  6. This build is uncharted territory for me. I make no claims to what it meters Of course I want it to be as loud as possible. But if it's not loud and taco's his windshield, I would be just as happy
  7. Moved on to try a Tower 10 IPA. Not too bad. Not as hoppy as some others. Has a smoother ale flo to it.
  8. I love me a good Ale too. The IPA goes well with the Diesel cigar tonight
  9. Tonight's selection http://kneedeepbrewing.com/year-round-beers/hoptologist-dipa/
  10. Also make sure you leave your back seat at home. there is a hazardous waste disposal fee if left here.
  11. good question. I'm trying to figure out how I'm going get around while my car is gone. The ol lady got a job now. I got a razor scooter you can use.
  12. I think I was about 8 or 9 when I was taught how to solder. Wasn't too much longer after that I was working on a variety of electronics learning from my dad. everything from audio, wide band radio to tube tv's Around 14 I started troubleshooting car audio for neighbors. Soon after that I was working on wiring pump systems, interiors, and paint. My mom did ceramics and taught me how to airbrush. I quickly adapted that to cars where I could. Until the internet. It was trial and error. Mostly error and redo I had the skills to do a solid job. It wasn't until the internet that I saw others skills that I wanted to really work on mine. Now I use every chance I can to research ideas and designs to better my abilities. I guess it's partly what us older guys see wrong with the younger guys asking questions. With the overwhelming amount of info available, there is no reason for the trial and error and the amount of lazyness that is seen in the majority of installs these days. There is no reason for the guys just starting out on their 1st buildlog to not have quality work in it. It's not rocket science. It doesn't take cool amp racks or plexi and led's to be nice. Simple clean wiring. Taking time to carpet. Sanding and filling screw holes with wood filler isn't hard. This was all standard stuff long before the internet. Take pride in what you do. If you are here to show off your work, then lets put some pride in it.
  13. I use to have quite the collection of my old gear stacked up to use again later. Most of it was limited production stuff, or collectors items. Times have been tough and I have sold just about everything in the collection
  14. The measurement the DD1 takes is different then the measurement you see in a scope. A scope is showing you a sinewave. As the voltage increases you will see the wave square off when the signal can no longer produce that wave effectively A DD1 measures THD. The DD1 measures the point at which the distortion ( not square wave) becomes dirty in the signal past it's preset reading point. Now, there can be a wide gap between the point where the dd1 reads at it's set point to the point where you see the scope signal start to square off. This can be a big THD percentage number depending on the product. It'snot hard to read up on exactly what Total Harmonic distortion is guys.
  15. I'd be interested to see the hole setup and how they are hooked up. I have had a dd1 for quite awhile now and have used it on a large number of production and NON production equipment without issues. I have even used in against my TPI 460 scope. A number of times. Not because I don't trust the ddW, but to justify my scope collecting dust on the shelf. Sadly no matter what people say about the product, there will be a group to hammer on it. And no matter who says it works, they will still bash it and call the users nut huggers.
  16. In all reality, a video or even a dozen wouldn't matter. There will always be a large group of people who believe a product is crap because someone's name is on it. Hell, before the DD1, you had the same amount of people who would say an O-scope was a waste, that a ddm was just as good.
  17. There is going to be people who will hate anything with Steve's name attached it, and it has nothing to do with the product.
