Re: Homemade Concentricity Gauge
Very recently I set out to build a run out gauge hopefully as simple as one could be built. I used Knothed's fancy gauge for the sample. Here's what I did. One BSA Block - Yes, I could have cut a block, cut a slot, but I wanted it simple. I did nothing to the block. Screwed a 3/32" drill bit on...

Re: Car build jigs and supplies for sale
I don't understand what you have exactly. Can you send some pictures? If you can't send pictures to derby talk, perhaps you can email them directly to me.
Thank you.
Thank you.

Re: SWEETEST DAY
Many, many, many years ago I forgot to get my VERY special one a gift for Sweetest Day. I thought perhaps I could help someone else by reminding them of this very special day. I'd like to add something even though it's too late at this point. If your very special one is a member of "Weight Watc...

PINEWOOD DERBY 500
Here's a race that is limited to 500 cars. Everyone is welcome. Lube is limited to graphite. Parts must be BSA so I would guess you can use 1 gram wheels if you choose. Cars will not be returned. Hopefully an aluminum track is used. I'm going to guess this is going to be a very competitive race. Som...
