Thinking about making the business card part WH stencil. Have a head, wheel, and little circle cutouts so you can easily draw a WH on whatever.

Is there any kind of guage that would be handy around a horse? Some sort of alignment jig or belt tension checker we could integrate into the card?

Lol like I said left the filament long, clip AFTER

Paint etc....keeps holes from getting clogged or final end of fiber getting covered over...just snip once all done!

When you snip, you leave a clean end!

These are incredibly simple, and I managed to get the tolerance where this key actually friction fits in and both sides stay on with no glue lol.

I may need to loosen it up a little. Could also thicken it up a little and round it a bit more i kinda like the thin feel of this, but thats me.

Is this something that should go to the store?

Id probably price these at 3 bucks for 2.

To install simply brush a little nail polish remover on each half and squeeze together for a min.

Some notes on this black filament and some layer height experimenting, and some other thoughts on next steps.....this filament is really nice. Once I tried a layer height at .01mm

It gave a smooth satin finish that catches the light really nice, I hated putting acetone on the last one! Once the store generates a little more revenue Ill be trying some silver(the last "silver" I tried was light gray NOT silver!) Definately would not be chrome but still a nice satin sheen!

      My lowered wheel horse build
      By Burnerman
      I’m building a lowered 300 series wheelhorse. So far it’s a combination of 3 scrap tractors. 
      the frame, trans and tins are from a GT2500 anniversary special given to me by a neighbor with a trashed Briggs. The Kohler M12 is from a junkyard 312 that was roached. The parts tractor I’m using for the build was another older 312. I’ve got the k301 in the garage. The trans was toast. Both axles wallowed out keyways and 1 axle actually broken. 
      Anyway! I needed a project and a toy to putt around the neighborhood. I couldn’t find any other posts on how to do the whole thing. I’m trying to keep it cheap using stuff I have on hand and looking as “stock but cooler” as possible. So here we go. 
      I’ll update this as I go along.
