    Anyone use their ARB compressor to inflate SUPs or Kayaks?

    I've used mine to inflate but be very careful as it gets to the max pressure. I had one (iSUP) blow up on me because the gauge reading was off and it was sitting in the hot sun for a bit too long. Also note that the ARB isn't a high volume compressor so it's still going to take almost as long...

    Need a better remote temp sensor for my Engel MT45

    A bit late to the party with suggestions but THIS one works perfectly for me in my CFX3 35L and I like that there's an alarm function in the app for temp too high or low

    Tembo Tusk Scottle Recipes, Tips and Tricks

    So basically what you're saying is that they're Skottels. ;) Traditionally made from an old plough shear and popular since 'forever' in South Africa. Beggars can't be choosers but they seem to have only made their way to the US as the cleverly marketed and high-priced 'Skottle'. By the way...

    Drifta Drawer Style Build (Toyota Prado 120/ Lexus GX470)

    Last one... Step 20 This is basically the last step outside of installation and creation of the side wings. Here you are going to lay your last bit of carpet, screw in your pull rings, and screw your lid on. I made my lid a separate piece and installed it after the carpet, so if for ever...

    Drifta Drawer Style Build (Toyota Prado 120/ Lexus GX470)

    Continued... Step 15: Begin laying down your trunk liner (Boot liner). I used automotive adhesive in both spray version and brush on. I used the brush on for the detail work and the spray can for the large areas. I started with the drawers and worked my way out. You are going to want to glue...

    Drifta Drawer Style Build (Toyota Prado 120/ Lexus GX470)

    Continued... Step 8: Now it's time to apply our stain. I purchased a stain and lacquer all in one. Since this is just going on the inside of the box and outside of the drawers, there is no need for the perfect look you could get with doing the stain and lacquer separate. This is easy, and it...

    Drifta Drawer Style Build (Toyota Prado 120/ Lexus GX470)

    Given that this thread seems to be a hostage of the Photobucket ransom I thought I'd repost for GXWagon with updated photo links. Hope they don't mind :) The photo upload per post seems to be 10 so this is post one of a few. Welcome to the Idiots Guide to the Drifta Drawer DIY Build ...Under...

    Weber Q 1200 or Magma Gas Grill?

    What about the Cadac Carri Chef 2? It's nice and portable but doesn't need a table to set on. You've got more versatility with the interchangeable inserts - BBQ grid and Chef pan included. You could even pick up a the skottel insert and head over to the thread on here for some ideas.

    DIY Propane Firepit

    I'm not a lawyer but maybe if you sold them 'disassembled' as kits you'd be able to sidestep the liability issue - since the end buyer is actually completing the build and you're just providing the custom parts.

    So Many Cool Toyotas.....why?

    I agree with your view of the safety standards issue but I think you misinterpret the direction of the US 4x4 craze - specifically regarding the fad of 'up-optioned' models. While there is a loyal group of people in the US who value reliable and capable underpinnings over flashy specs and...

    Tembo Tusk Scottle Recipes, Tips and Tricks

    I'm not sure if this writing was meant to be tongue-in-cheek but skottels have been in use for 70+ years - seems like Tembo Tusk is just trying to bring the modern version to the attention of Americans. Does it amaze me that Tembo Tusk can charge $185 for $30 worth of metal? Sure, and I wish I...
