In memory of Panhead Nick.
Not haunted. Ghosted. I have good memories of my late friends, my ghosts. We're all Ghosted some day.

Head Unit installed. Working ~95%; programming requires tweaking but that's via SSH. It's a forever thing.

Working on armrest in the '35. The original '97 seats are raised 50mm, making the already poor center armrest impossible to use without a pad under your arm. The armrest was also cracking near midpoint from hitting the false wall behind it.
My friend Doc dubbed this 'The Spliffey Hinge'...
A High-Tech Hillbilly creation.
Scan the knob and base plate, print until pretty. TPU + Nylon.
Hillbilly.
A new laptop and 3D scanner for Christmas. This is the shifter in the '35.
Simplified the mesh, converted to .stl in Meshmixer then to a solid in Fusion. Added a solid cylinder then subtracted the knob, added grooves & spit in half so it can physically be installed.
Pretty neat stuff. It's all on the strength of the laptop: Ultra 9 275HX 24 core @ 5.4 Ghz, 64 GB memory, GTX5060 GPU with 8GB and 2TB of SSD.
Working as designed except some dummy left a ground loose.
