The true breadth and depth of the dumbness isn't quite apparent though until your life resembles a swap meet and your credit cards have been rejected. I will console myself that at least after every tangible means of failure have been explored, I'm willing to do the walk of shame rather than invent new ones.

Okay, so I've gotta know. The chassis on the first iteration of the bike: the upper-most horizontal members are different diameters. The left hand side tube is bigger than all of the others. Was there a purpose to this? Or just the result of available material? I'm assuming this was to run something through the chassis on one side?

[@SuperfastMatt]

I noticed that when I was making the video, and the truth is: I can't remember. I think I might have wanted to use it to pull a portion of the intake air from the nose. That first build feels like a lifetime ago.

[@drewdane40]

Your worst engineering work has resulted in your best philosophical work. The lines "That's what life is: Making newer, better mistakes" And "You don't always have to follow your dreams, because sometimes your dreams are dumb" put this video in the best of Matt tier.

[@EweKnowWho]

Hey Matt, thanks for showing off the parts you get from Send Cut Send! I was struggling to figure out how to mount some garden tractor wheels on a pedal-powered machine I’m working on, until I remembered you showing off some custom parts you had them make for one of your projects. It only took me a few minutes to use their online parts builder to design and order some flanges to mate the wheels to my bicycle axles. I just got the parts in the mail, and they are awesome!

[@SlyBlu7]

I've mostly resigned to finish my automotive mistakes after the kids are grown and out of the house. My current checklist looks a lot like your old one, but with the motivation line item dangerously close to being crossed off too.

[@fredflintstone8048]

Some of the things you mentioned reminded me of the SV Seeker metal boat building project that was built in the yard of an ex-IT, database administrator who fancies himself a bit of an engineer. Through out the course of the project he would take the 'cheap out' route when selecting parts and methods for doing the building an only arguing with the more experienced people who volunteered on the project. Once the boat hit the water and testing the systems began, a lot of the poor choices have bubbled to the surface requiring that they be modified, and the more expensive parts purchased and installed when doing the work of course is harder. Your reminded me of him when you talked about paying more money in the end due to buying the wrong things first, and then having to replace them later. I do admire your honesty. I mean no offense to the SV Seeker project owner, but his ego will never let him admit to making these kinds of mistakes, at least he doesn't admit it in his video presentations.

I am not involved in the car community whatsoever, so it's pretty awesome to know other people have the same problems as I find myself making. I always get in way over my head too. I resolved to rewire my imported 30 year ols Land Rover Defender after seeing your wiring video. Bought all the things that were recommended, went out to my truck and immediately found myself staring into the void and realized I was in way over my head right now. I did, however, wire up an engine bay light using almost none of the recommended materials or processes and then called it a day. I'll rewire when I get a chance to redo the frame. Anyway, your videos are great.

good job on the not dying part, I am inspired to do the same

[@baimun]

Matt... I think the perfect solution would be to change out the front wheel assembly for an axle (or pair of a-arms with central shock) positioning two wheels outside the chassis, and an angled hinge... so that leaning the entire chassis one way or the other will cause the axle to rotate to match the turning radius. The handlebars should remain in play so at standstill the angle can be pulled one way or the other. Not only would this make the entire thing more stable, it would have brilliant forward visibility, while retaining that "space ship" feel of leaning it through the corners.

First, Thomas Edison's response to the question about the 1,000 unsuccessful attempts to make a functioning lightbulb was actually "Fuck off". Not a lot of people know that. Second, your experience building and rebuilding that thing is the same sad tale as my homemade Lotus 7 hillclimb/dragcar/autocross/dailydriver project. It's going to be AWESOME this time! My inner 12yr old assures me of it. When I start to get discouraged 12yr old Jon shows up in his smelly Van's and threadbare AC/DC t-shirt and reminds me that quitters never score and to stop screwing around trying to make a 12A rotary streetable and just put a smallblock Mopar w a tunnelram in the frikken' thing and go waste some fools. Third, it's unfortunate you gave up on that streamliner before you did the obvious thing to get the project back on track and add a second engine. I thought you were a carguy

I had to stop for a bit at ; 'Cutting corners always makes the car either slower or less safe, and nobody wants to go slower' I guess no one really cares if it's less safe 😁 Also, the 'making newer, better mistakes' I'm constantly chuckling, and sometimes almost laughing out loud watching your videos. The whole 'I resolved to decide' part coming up again is as hilarious as it is terrifying to think could happen to any of us. You should get yourself a YT channel where you can talk about your projects, because this is all gold. I mean, you already have, but if you didn't already do it you should have done it. (my superpower is hindsight) Edit; I scrapped the shell for my project car a few years, and have sold some of the parts I was meaning to use for it lately , and I think I felt bad about it until now.

Engine and transmission would have made a great go-kart. Back in the early 60's Indy 500 race winner of the 1959 Indy 500 was Jimmy Bryan. He died in a race a few years after that. In the mean time he was a Phoenix resident and built a go-kart with a 650 Triumph twin motor on it. Kart races were held in shopping center parking lots with bales of hay as borders. Back when nothing was open on Sundays. He never won a race with it because it was too powerful and would spin out on the curves. It was a novelty and everybody loved it. All the other karts were powered by chain saw motors.

[@oldhillbillybuckkowalski]

My current mistake in progress is a minibike...Sort of... I took a really fun, functional Baja Warrior MB 200 minibike with a Predator 212cc engine and "Torque converter " drive that at 48 mph was 24 mph faster than stock and would easily pull vertical wheels tanks, and put in a 479cc 16hp Briggs and stratton Vanguard Vtwin that I then modified with a governor delete, 34mm dirtbike roundslide carburetor and valve springs with enough seat pressure to allow around 7k RPM before valve float along with some machined steel retainers. I also did a mild port and polish on the heads since I have done cylinder head porting and polishing along with flowbench testing as part of my job for a long time. I also had to modify the frame, raising the backbone by 3.5 inches to fit the engine in and have enough room to work on it. Due to the larger diameter crankshaft the "Torque Converter " was no longer going to fit but in all likelihood it would've disintegrated anyway as it was rated for up to about 9 hp maximum and I am probably putting out around 24hp. That may not sound like much hp, in fact it's not difficult to put out that much with a 212cc single if you've got about $2.5k to throw at it, but the Torque output of a modified 479cc Vtwin vs a modified 212cc single is quite a lot, and with a vehicle weight of around 150lbs I found the original 50 tooth sprocket on the rear wheel (19×8×7 wheels/tire combination) was almost unrideable. It would wheelie pure vertical while spinning the tire on asphalt using a centrifugal clutch with a jackshaft on a launch from a dead stop. A 25 mph rolling start pulled the front wheel about 2 feet off the ground and about jerked my shoulders out of socket,but it topped out at about 52 mph. I worked my way down to a 32 tooth rear sprocket. My acceleration from a 20mph rolling start is still shockingly fast but the centrifugal clutch can't withstand over 1/4 throttle at any slower speeds and it will in fact glow red if I try to do so. It will still pull the front wheel up about 6 inches at 25mph if I snap the throttle open. With top speed around 78 mph I think I have surpassed the maximum safe speed for the Chinese 19×8×7 dirt knobby tires, although they do feel remarkably stable after airing them up to 20psi vs the 10 psi maximum pinted on the sidewall. Well at least remarkably stable for tires that shipped from China with a factory egg shape and 15 oz out of balance. The centrifugal growth rate is almost comical and may be contributing to my top speed. So now I'm looking at sourcing an appropriate set of wheels and tires, as well as brakes (single 4 inch rear drum is not really doing the job) and using an old XL125 lower end and transmission with clutch to make it safely past the 100 mph mark and not have to baby it until over 20 mph. So essentially I will possibly end up with a rigid framed, telescopic front-end minibike that performs a bit better than an 883 Sportster but is no longer as simple and reliable as a minibike (or even an 883 Sportster) that is not street legal and tries to break my spine everytime I ride it. It does currently get about 44 mpg at a steady 50 mph, I have ridden it to a buddies house 12 miles away numerous times, and so far I have less than $500 wrapped up in it including the price of the used minibike so I guess it's not as bad of a decision as a land speed bike lol. But at 52 years old, in relatively beat up condition and living on a fixed income (VA disability) one would think I would be making better choices by now.
