Made me chuckle. When I was in the 3rd or 4th grade a bunch of the guys in my class all got dirt bikes or 3 or 4 wheelers. One in particular had gotten an old Honda 3 wheeler. We asked him if it was a two or four stroke and his response was "it was a four stroke but one broke off so now it's a three stroke". Not sure, but the missing stroke probably could have been re attached with some green zip ties and assembly tape.AgentX said:Hey, Ichi--I heard a rumor you had sourced a mid-70s era 3-stroke engine. What's the deal? Gonna make something awesome with it?

ridesolo said:That sounds pretty serious, probably only JB Weld would do it. However... I heard that if you put a few green zip ties into a blender or coffee grinder and then mix that into the JB Weld before it cures it'll all be100/times stronger.
Ribo said:Hey Ichiban,
I've been trying unsuccessfully to mount my awesome bad-ass iphone6 to my bars so I an use it as a bad-ass GPS, text my ladies, and watch bad-ass Ichiban youtube videos on long rides. Mainly I've used tape, chewing-gum and thumb-tacs but it's proving to be an engineering challenge beyond my skills, my last technique of a large nail seemed to hold the tape in place better that the chewing-gum but seems to have interrupted the functioning of the device to some degree. I only can watch black movies now, like solid black pictures, and my GPS seems to think it's always night and won't show the street-lighting.Can you help?

and has anyone explored the possibilities within the medical field for the use of green zip ties - holding broken bones together instead of titanium pins, use them as torniquets, holding bandages on instead of those dangerous safety pins, stomach banding, pinning sticky-out ears back, attaching splints, the uses are endless
and of course they have the added advantage of being sterile straight out of the pack
I still have just the flip phone- if you send me a new iphone6, I will make a diy bar mount video for everyoneRibo said:Hey Ichiban, I've been trying unsuccessfully to mount my awesome bad-ass iphone6 to my bars.... ...... Can you help?
