Mini Willys CJ2A Part 11: Making the Steering Actually Work @PaulsGarage

Uploaded September 2017 | Updated September 2026, 2 hours ago

Today I use some ingenuity and copious amount of grinding and drilling to make the steering fit. When i designed this in cardboard, I made no provisions for steering 'rack' accessability. Today, I am paying for the laziness of past-me. He's a jerk.

Mini Willys CJ2A Part 11: Making the Steering Actually Work

The EASIEST Method for Metal Casting (open mold)

$DIY Electric Heat Treat Oven/Kiln/Furnace Part 0.5: Design and Materials (Fire brick and Kaowool) I find myself in need of another box-o-fire, this electric. Heres the plans. It runs 240v, somewhere around 12 amps, and will hopefully have a max temp of around 2400f. The fancy magical computer controller can be programmed to do anything, which means I can use this for heat treating metals, pottery, lost wax mold burnout, glass art, precious metal clay (whatever that is) and probably reheating my coffee with high precision. Heck, I could melt the coffee cup if I want. This will not, however, be used to melt metal for casting. It will take too long. Fortunately my other box of fire can handle that (the fire brick foundry furnace: https://youtu.be/QzbuNlCO52Y ) I got my insulating fire brick and ceramic wool from: https://www.armilcfs.com/refractory-products/firebrick/ Controller is from: https://www.ortonceramic.com/ Elements are OEM parts for Skutt 818 https://skutt.com/ Mailing Address: 1818 Milton Ave STE 100 #1973 Janesville, WI 53545-9998 We have a community Discord server.
