Buying a fender roller for myself - well I should say that I bought one already. :stickoutt

anyways, in an effort to offest my cost of buying this thing, I'd like to host a diy fender rolling day at my crib.

$30 a corner and you can use my tools - jack, stands etc.

Post up here if you're interested! Space is limited and here's your chance to do your own fenders on the cheap!

got it! seems very easy. See you guys on June 20th! Ron, have you ever rolled fenders before?

themadhatter
05-30-2004, 04:05 PM
sure I have but this is a diy day - I won't be responsible for cracking someone's paint etc.

do your own car and everyone is happy. it's exceptionally easy to do to -you'll be impressed at how the tool does all the work for you, all you gotta do is move it back and forth with a little heat on the paint.

yep.......heard its pretty straight forward and to the point! I cant wait.......and even better- wont have to pay $150 to get it done at Rogue!!

05-30-2004, 04:13 PM
there - you pay for the service - here you're paying to 'rent' the tool from me to do it yourself at my place.

Ron, if you need me to bring anything over let me know..... I have some extra jack stands , a lift ...etc just holla

themadhatter
05-31-2004, 02:11 PM
Bill, cool - I'll let you know.

I have a pretty good jack and stands but I can't imagine I'd need more since I only have the one roller. :)

edit - this may actually be a good excuse for me to work on the car and add new toys. You want want to bring a floor jack and stands :D

Bill

**Attention** RTAB DIY'ers

Ron aka. Themadhatter has brought it to my attention that he needs me to bring my RTAB tool to this meet for his car. If anyone wants to do a set of RTAB's at this fender rolling meet please let me know in advance. Space is limited for this type of job and depending on your mechanical ability determines how many we/you can do in one day. Please pm Ron or me in advance for tool rental and space availability.

I have a paintball gun and about 8,000 rounds that I can put on ice. I'm sure that'll quickly calm you down. ;)

I need to know how many people are coming over - there is limited space/time to do these cars and if you don't shout now, you may be just a spectator.

06-08-2004, 10:56 AM
I'll also be willing to help anybody out that needs help, I'm comming to provide tools/moral support :)

Tools
(1)air tank + air line I can bring both air tanks if absolutly nessicary, (4) 3 ton jack stands, (1) 3 ton suv jack, (1) gear puller assuming someone from my house didnt break it, (1)sawzall, (2) extension cords, (1) cold florecent tube shop light, (1) creeper assuming I find it, if you need any wratches breakerbars or anything else let me know.

I'm also pretty mecanicaly incliend and would be willing/able to help out people if bill is occupied on rons car.. all though I plan on seeing how the diff is swapped, as well as the wheel bearings are replaced, because I need to learn more to catch upto you bill ;)

-----
Bill, I'll still give you a holler around 12:30..

themadhatter
06-08-2004, 11:22 AM
that reminds me, my creaper is busted. does anyone know if sears covers their craftsman creepers under their lifetime warranty? my creaper took a crap :(

you can shoot by at 10:30, I'll probably be out of the house before that.

oh yeah, you guys are more then welcome to bring bagels, donuts, loose women, etc - oh yeah, a box'o'joe from Dunkin Donuts would be a cool idea too guys. hint hint ;)

this sounds like it's going to be a fun little techfest.

-Ron

joe325i
06-08-2004, 11:35 AM
If Sal does the caravan from my town, they'll meet @ the dunkin donuts, i can have him bring down a box'o'joe but I'll have to ask him first :P
I'll be there @ like 10:10-15ish to help set up the air and electical cords and such.. FYI I'm a time nazi lol, and I get a little "wanting to run the show syndrome" when im working on cars lol so if im bein too pushy or leading lemme know.. Im only like that when im on workin on cars, just because if you start messin around more things go wrong and such... So just lemme know and I'll back down..


You can try to see if sears covers it...
My mecanical engineering buddy might want to come, so if he does he has a padded craftsmen creeper where as I have a wodden non padded wal-mart creeper w/ 1 wheel falling off lol... ya get what ya pay for.

I cant wait for the tech fest!

I had a dream about this last night (dont ask me why) and your house was a HUGE victorian mansion, and like 500+ bmws came... I sware your house must have been like 45,000 sqft. and the parking lot was like an acher lol..

I cant wait! w00+!

you must be clarivoyant :eek:

actually, I live in a small house but the driveway is a descent size. ...but if the pool is open, bring your swimming trunks. :D

also, there is a D&D by my house. I'll probably just get myself a huge mug before anything.

Ron I donno why I had that dream lol, it was pretty insane... I'll bring the suit... but I have a feeling I'll be helping working on cars all day... Imma change @ your place if thats cool :P Im not driving home with grease all over my clothes... I already get dirty enough doing really simple jobs.. Ask Sal how nasty I got while chaning the manifold on my moms 740i lo.
Which also needed a new alternator... My arms were nearly black. I dont belive in glove :P except when I break out the cleaning solvents.

I'll bring a 1500 watt hair dryer if no one else has one but my mom may not like that lol.. I think Bill said heat guns get WAY too hot.. unless you guys have a cool digital pyrometer which I've always wanted to get..

Anybody want to drop my trans with me and replace it, or see whats involved with changing my solanoids so it accually shifts out of 1st geat on its own??? PS I really dont anticipating that to happen @ the fender meet :P

Wasiq, read this for the alignment: http://forums.bimmerforums.com/forum/showthread.php?t=216652

$75 for a top notch alignment. they are about 5 minutes from Rogue Engineering. I'll be hitting them up for an alignment after the 20th meet. You can join up at my house and we can roll up to their shop when you're ready if you'd like.

yeah, I'll sheesha with ya. I'll have to bring more of the good stuff back with me I guess. :)

Joe - try your best to join us.

Thanks man, did u come to the Princeton meet? Also, I plan on driving there from Ron's house thats why I will try to get a appt for the 20th otherwise I guess I'll take that 50min drive on Saturday. Mapquest says 1hr 20mins, so I hope 50 is more correct ;). Thanks.

Princton people dont realize that parts of jersey have blue laws lol

He's pricing it out for me.. When I get home I'm going to determine if my rims are really bent and just get new tires, I dont really mind them being rashed up..

Im already figuring out how to talk to my dad about it, I dont think it would fly with him, because he takes it to the city nearly everyday, hes 47. And he pays for the insurance... So that dosnt leave with with a lot of leverage even though I paid for ~85% of the car.

Wasiq
06-09-2004, 02:05 PM
blue laws?

and yea Ron, I figured that out when I called them ;).

in bergan county (where precision is) all non essencial stores are closed on sunday to ease conjestion and stuff.. So for the most part only grocery stores are open and cvs...

Hey Wasiq,

you wouldn't want what I found in Togo, it was junk. mostly dried up. :(

I'm in Milan right now and I don't see anything around here for you either. I'll take you for a trip up to Paterson and show you where you can pick up the good stuff locally.
