Built a custom frame/bike for my father in law. My wife said he probably would have been happy with a Walmart bike but we wanted to make him something special. Frame goes to powder coat next week, he wants a matte royal blue color which should look awesome.3yr ⋅ turtlewelder ⋅ r/Welding

Made a rally light bar for my wife's 2015. Wasn't too keen on what was available pre-made as they seem to be more aesthetic and less protective. There will also be an aluminum skid plate for the bottom portion as well.4yr ⋅ turtlewelder ⋅ r/XVcrosstrek

My 16 year old Sulcata enjoying a treat. I got him when I was 19 (he was 1 month old). His name is Will because yeah he's probably going to be in my will!5yr ⋅ turtlewelder ⋅ r/tortoise
Just finished the install of Kartboy shift plate/bearing/shift stop, group N pitch mount, group N trans mount, and positive shift kit and rear differential bushing inserts. Pretty quick for all of it, about 5 hours. Going to upload tools/steps that made it easy feel free to ask any questions!3yr ⋅ turtlewelder ⋅ r/WRX
Feeling confident enough with the new offset to do my first brisket, will update when done!1yr ⋅ turtlewelder ⋅ r/smoking
Stock WRX pitch mount vs. group N. They are essentially identical except for the rubber insert is much stiffer on the group N part. Group N is marked with STi on the top. Good alternative to some of the stiffer polyurethane aftermarket mounts.3yr ⋅ turtlewelder ⋅ r/WRX
