Exactly what the title states - putting a thread together where we can come and post little tidbits of anything we have done today, and as we build them to our own tastes.

Curious as to your polisher brand/model

This is a China knock off of the Cyclo polishers. It uses the same readily available foam pads and it seems to be well made for the price . Absolutely no swirl marks to worry about. I think Cyclo may have shut them down quickly though as they have became hard to find.

My Cyclo Dual orbital gave out after 35 years and 20 years of that was weekly use at my business . I can't say enough good things about the Cyclo as it is the premier car polisher barr none. You can find used ones reasonably priced on Ebay if you keep an eye out. I think mine is the upper motor bearing . I will eventually get around to rebuilding it but lucked up on the TruePower so haven't seen the need as of yet .

I bought my granddaughter her bronco. Wonder how automotive wrap would work on the plastic to color match my hot pepper red? (pay no mind to the messy shop)
😄

I'm not sure if it's harder to get to the beer fridge or the drill press.

Folding would be nice for the 2-doors. Mine fits on the way to the park but would be a little in the way if I had a passenger (narrator: she never has passengers). Dumb q, but is in wind-rated? I was wondering if those would hold up as well, but I've been interested.

Where did you find someone to powder coat such a small one-off piece?

@Mal has similar on his Wildtrak. The flag pole is like a tent pole. I would think it could handle quite a bit of wind.

Seattle Powder Coating. Pretty quick turnaround, too. Two weeks from initial contact to install. Made me look around my Bronco to see what else could be powder coated. They have an infinite number of colors and textures to choose from. David in Ballard/Freemont hooked me up. Great service! Seattle Powder Coat

Chris here. I drive a 2-door Velocity Blue 2023 Ford Bronco Badlands with Sasquatch, Lux, a 2.7L V6, and an automatic transmission. It’s fun.

Adding some pictures...
JCR OffRoad Front Door Pockets
IAG Paracord Handles for all 4 doors
Bulletpoint dashmount with phone holder

Put my deposit on a Gobi Stealthrack with multi-light setup... Tomorrow (friday) its going over to get some ceramic UV tint put on all the windows including windshield. Take the rear to a 5 dark and the front will stay legal 30. Windshield will get a 70 with the ceramic uv tent but may go to 55. Talking to the shop they just did a bronco same way and anything to help cut UV and heat down the better.

I did the amber DRL bar via ForSkin. Saved me $1.6K if I bought the AlphaRex headlights to achieve the look.

Forest service opened the trails today so I hit my favorite one only to find this. Heading back in the morning with the chainsaw to open this trail since the the FS hasn't been there yet. I tried but just not enough room for the Bronco.

21 Badlands, 2 dr, four banger, slushbox, SAS. PERFECT!

Shops that are messy are lived in and alive…. Never be embarrassed, except when you can’t find the last 10mm socket…
