I feel like this crap has been my winter project for the last ten years. Graduate in May. Never going back to school again. Ever. Masters is plenty for me. I look forward to the day where I have just 1 job. Maybe then I can get some work-life balance to do some fun stuff

Building a lowrider pedal car with air ride. CO2 air set up. My second one I’ve built. I make them into strollers.

You still working on your NP.
Yea. Finishing up a 300 hour trauma rotation. I graduate in May. Will have adult gero acute care degree. Will be able to treat 13 years and older from primary care all the way to trauma critical care. It’s been a long path. If I woke up 17 again I’d go to trades school and be an electrician. Or just go straight to medical school.

I really wanna tear down my 144 and get it vapor blasted. Blued. its got 33 hours since the overhaul and really doesn’t need to do any of that but the stuff people are doing with vapor blasting is amazing.It’s restoring everything to like show room new! Possibly next winter project if I got 1 job by then ha.

dude would you be able to modify a power wheels? I want different wheels on it, 3 piece style, and air ride!

I’m sure there is a way to do it. But just thinking quickly about it I would say it would be hard. There’s no real way to mount any linked suspension because there is no axle. Plus to run an electric air ride set up would be to hard. It would have to be all CO2 which isn’t a problem. Then the front end isn’t typical for air ride. Honestly it would be easier to air ride a golf cart or go kart. But I totally understand wanting to do a power wheel. The strollers are a huge hit anywhere you go. We can’t go more than 20ft without someone stopping us.

Attached is the first one I built. It has a standard air set up. Only get about 20 lifts out of it before I have to refill. The CO2 will get around 150 lifts
