My Thoughts On FAA Remote ID
I want to make a few things clear, I no longer fly model aircraft and have been debating getting back in, but if this passes I won't be flying! Also, I am not endorsing compliance or noncompliance, that's 100% your decision. Lastly, if the FAA is going to implement this, it needs to be very clear who has access to the data, and free-flight areas NEED to be implemented so people can enjoy flying together and learn from each other.
Check out Bruce's video on the topic here as well as other videos he recommended. If you want to learn more about what is going on, go check out Bruce's (XJET) videos, he is much more knowledgable on the topic than I am.

Dual Sided Engraving Hack
Yes, I know I am only engraving one side of the coin, but the idea works regardless!
The Never Finished And Always Changing GoPro Rig!
My hope is that you can see the idea that the GoPro rig will never be perfect, is perfectly fine. My needs are never going to be exactly the same as Danielle's, and anyone else who uses this, but that's what makes it such a handy platform. Make it into what works best for you and your applications.
Check out @Liveintheadventure here and drop it a subscription if you like what Danielle has to offer.

Using The Heat Set Insert Press
I needed to install some M5 inserts into the base of my modified GoPro rig, so this was a great opportunity to show off the 3DZWMAN press in action. While I didn't use the press as originally designed in this video, it does show the flexibility of it and that's what I like about it so much. Sorry for the slight blur in the close-up shots, GoPro's don't have the best focal length for macro shots, but you get the idea. Do note that for larger inserts, pre-heat or a lot of patience, may be required.

I could not get just an M6 tip, so I grabbed this kit for the larger sizes. (aff link):

1961 Corvair Lakewood Custom Hood Emblem Insert
Back at Thanksgiving, my dad asked me about making a custom insert for his Corvair Lakewood hood trim piece and I was happy to take on the challenge. All that was left was a tiny chunk of the original plastic so lots of guesswork was involved in creating what you see here. Also, I did not fly down just for this project, I was in town for an unrelated matter.
If you are interested in one of these for your Corvair, please let me know in the comments section below. A little filing to fit may be required to fit your vehicle.

Cutting An Acrylic Building Interior #k40laser #lasercutting
In this video, I show a brief overview of cutting some parts for Richard, the club "electrician," with my K40 laser. Richard sent me the file to cut as well as the material, I just had to cut things out the morning we were going to meet for a Yosemite Short Line work-day. Due to the limited space inside the laser, I am struggling to find a way to film what goes on inside, but I think you get a good enough idea from what I did capture.
If you have any questions about my setup, let me know down below. And before you ask, no the files are not public.
