Shout out to the Harbor Freight cement mix tub... 14.99 and it's even made in USA! Worked great to use to disassemble and clean the case... I bought 4 of them... no regrets...

I was only able to mask off and paint the bell housing side of the transmission, but I think it sure looks nice! It's just two fast coats, so there are nooks and crannies that are light on paint, but you'll know this thing has been touched when you open the hood! 😍🥰 I hope it will last my son for 10 years...

Got the 6f35 case halves back from the transmission shop. They are so nice and clean now that they've been hot-dipped 🔥 Now they will get a super light coat of FORD BLUE before I start stuffing the rebuilt guts back inside... 😊😁

We are hiring for another CAM programmer. If in Charlotte, NC, even better. Fusion, CAMWorks and MasterCAM are all viable options.

What's stopping someone from creating a massive alt/azi-adjustable array of mirrors and claiming/declaring their fair-weather airspace "their own"? 😂😅

Well, my son and I did the best we could with Dawn dish soap, 😅, but I decided to take the case halves to the local transmission shop to be hot dipped to be cleaned... The owner said he doesn't normally do cleanings for people, but he wants to see if I can get it back together or not! 🤣😅 He's only charging me $10, bless him!! I think I might enjoy this more than manufacturing... 😅🥰

Interesting article and what I would consider a very un-American opinion. In unrelated news, I have just launched my new company focused on ensuring access to drones and their subcomponets for American civilians. Our right to fly, build, and develop new technology cannot be restricted or we doom ourselves to forever lag behind in this critical field. Tempus Edax Rerum Ter-drones.com
Why call autonomous #drones the “new Kalashnikov”❓ The concern is proliferation. Commercial components, accessible software, global supply chains, and scalable production can distribute increasingly autonomous strike capabilities across armed groups. Gerald Mako examines where governance can intervene in that ecosystem. 📖Read "The New Kalashnikov: Governing the Poor Man’s Autonomous Drone," a #SWJEssay #DroneWarfare
