    Looking for a new radical drawer system for my Discovery 2

    There's a lot going on here. "Aluminum extrusion" is a generic term for any kind of extruded aluminum shape, not just the T-slot system you're referencing here. It comes in most any shape you'd see steel in: Solid square and round stock, tube stock, angle stock, etc....Yes, aluminum extrusion...

    Looking for a new radical drawer system for my Discovery 2

    He wasn't asking about DIY options, ("Wondering if anyone makes affordable custom drawer systems.") and specifically said he had neither the time nor the resources to make his own, and went on to ask Rayra about building something for him. That's what I was addressing. That being said, given...

    Looking for a new radical drawer system for my Discovery 2

    The term "affordable custom drawer systems" is an oxymoron of biblical proportions. Multiply the $17.00 cost of those plastic bins you bought by a factor of 100 and you'll be in the neighborhood of what you'll pay for a "radical" custom drawer system. A local carpenter or cabinetmaker will be...

    NAS LR3 build with an overseas twist

    Ray, this continues to be my favorite Expo thread by a country mile. It's everything I love about the Expo forums in one neat package: practical real world knowledge about make and model speciific mods alongside exotic trip reports in said vehicle. Having picked up an '05 LR3 as a daily driver...

    Yaesu VX-7R programming question.

    Thanks, but as I noted, I need this for tomorrow, so that will not work in this situation.

    Yaesu VX-7R programming question.

    Hi all, I need to program my VX-7R with a PL on the Transmit side but CSQ on the Receive side and am not sure if I'm getting it correct. (on 2-meter) Yes, I've RTFM… If anyone has any insight into the specific steps to ensure the proper programming I would greatly appreciate a moment of your...

    Tools to keep in the Disco II

    Aren't the bolts on the front end of the rear propshaft 9/16th or something oddly non-metric like that? I found that out the hard way on the side of the road when my flex-couple bit the dust on 91 in VT when I tried to disconnect it.
