cluster lens mod...

Hmmm?.. I just did a chunk of plexiglass about 2 weeks ago and mine melted the cut slightly. Even tried 2 different bits(tile and gen purpose) and turned the speed all the way down too(mine only goes down to 15k rpm).

Wasn't severe and it didn't matter for a homemade gerbil cage with custom tubes added.. but I did have to dress the edge with a cratridge roll afterwards due to the slight molten edge created from the heat.

Maybe next time I'll send it out to have you do it(the kids already want a new addition) since you must have more patience than you lead us to believe. lol

 

maybe the...instrument cluster lens...isn't...plexiglass

 

You're right, it probably isn't plexiglass. Notice he's avoiding my question of why he's cutting the hole though! LOL, must be top secret!

 

let me address that question...

anybody else see that coming...

......

 

We wud like to see what it looks like Frank!

 

...this...two 4" holes...0 0...

 

I told Ya'...

 

Looks like a perfect circle. How did u get it perfectly round?
Anticpating the point when u decide to share a more expansive views of the project. I have a Roto Zip I have not used but a few times in the decade I have owned it. What cutting tool "bit" did u use?

 

it was a "bit" that was in the box...I don't know the differences in them.

 

got the modded lens installed today...looks great...

thanks...Tim, Jeff and Collin...:Handshake

thanks Jeff for lunch...:Handshake

 

Thanks for supper...

 

Wait.. Hold on... don't you have some sweet digital guages installed? Did you get rid of them?

 

At first I figured that he was retrofitting some aftermarket gauges, but because he is being so secretive about it,
I'm pretty sure he is installing magnifying glass lens so that he doesn't have to squint anymore....

 

Yep...nope...

 

I will try and get a/some pics. today...
