Figured I would throw this up here to show you guys a new tool I got, which is a lifesaver when it comes to manifold building.

Here is my new 6"x89" belt sander that I got from enco online. It is a 2hp monster, which is necessary for decking manifolds flat after they warp from welding. There were some great reviews on this machine from the honda-tech fabrication forum, so I went with it, and I have not been disappointed one bit.







And some pictures showing what it can do. All modeling done by MartinezA92 new-to-him cast manifold.






p.s. we really need to make a fabrication sub-forum.

 

I can't wait until I live in a place where I know I'm not going to end up moving in 2 years. My post-Navy life house will be on property big enough for a separate 2x2 garage... then I will have glorious toys like this!

 

Wish my GF had an adjustment like that.

So how much are you going to charge to lap one of our manifolds?

 

Shipping plus 10 dolla? Shipping plus 5 dolla for proud site supporters? And can we please get the portal back on the top menu?
