DIY Garage Projects | Mechanics & Electronics | 3D Printing | Welding | Motorcycles & Adventuring

Welcome to my channel where I show you all kinds of DIY projects, and some other stuff as well. Come along to be inspired, perhaps pick up some tips & tricks or just be entertained! 😎

Many of my projects happens in my garage. It's a multi-purpose garage as it is my workshop and my YouTube studio. Many of my projects are actually me improving my garage. It will also be a lot of motorcycle fixer-upper videos for a while, since I have several bikes lined up.

New video ready soon! I am doing a workshop upgrade - again. My tiny garage upstairs room is getting an important improvement. At least I think so, but I guess most people would never have spent a week on this... 😝

You need to check this if you are considering a 3D Scanner! Revopoint is launching a new standalone 3D scanner: MIRACO 2. An Early Bird campaign can give a discount up to 38%. That is quite an offer!

Check out my Shorts unboxing video:

I will be making a video about it soon, my Cagiva Elefant needs to be 3D scanned 😊

Seat Tray being 3D printed for my Honda CB400 cafe racer. Half way done 🤞 Ran the printer a bit faster than what my filament could take at the start, so the bottom is not perfect, seems like the side walls are doing good - so far 🫣 Print time esitmated to 8 hours, 4 to go

New exhaust muffler! Fits like a dream, and what a premium finish. Bought from Fuel Exhaust, UK. The size is very similar to the original one, perhaps a tiny bit shorter. I have not tested it yet, sound check tomorrow 😎

Has anyone tried this trick? 50% servo or transmission fluid mixed with 50% isopropanol to soften the inlet rubber booths? These are probably the original ones from my CB400 = 40+ years old and the rubber is very hard. I will eventually replace them, but wanted to see if I could get them a bit more flexible to be able to get the engine running until I can find replacement parts.

The carbs are getting along well, good as new now 😬

One carb cleaned and jetted (from #78 / #108 to #85 / #120) - ready for podfilters and first startup in 6 years - soon 🤞

The decision is made. For a true DIY workshop, there was really only one option. I got a lot of recommendations in the last video, none suggested or guessed this could be it.

I am on the lookout for a new large 3D printer, but I am not rushing into it. Until I have decided upon a new one, my custom Ender 3 Pro is what I got. It is actually performing pretty well, here I am printing clear PETG, and it lays down the filament just perfectly! 🤩

A new and exciting episode on my cafe racer / scrambler build is soon to come. I just had to paint the rear subframe to get a decent thumbnail for the YouTube video, as the grey primer on it was not very picturesque 😁 One minute with a spray paint did the trick 🤩
