Mechanical engineering is a funny thing. It's a ve Mechanical engineering is a funny thing. It's a very broad, and interesting discipline and there are countless opportunities that can come from it.
However if you plan on doing it just because you're "good at maths" and you like making things, you might find yourself a little bit disappointed.

Those opportunities to learn those things are definitely there, but you're gonna need to seek them out. The main thing you're going to learn in engineering is problem solving - in many forms.

Some of the project car... Progress. I can feel we Some of the project car... Progress. I can feel we're finally heading into some sunnier days and warmer weather and I can't wait to keep smashing the progress.
I've got so many cool things to show in the coming weeks, have you checked out my long format videos yet?

Flashback...Sunday? There has been a whole bunch o Flashback...Sunday? There has been a whole bunch of progress and change since making this video and I'm looking forward to sharing what that looks like.

It's tricky trying to make content that's applicable to multiple platforms but if you wanna see things in more depth, checkout my YT.

I cover things like mechanical engineering, CAD, 3D scanning, 3D printing, fabrication...

I was trying to avoid making many changes to the K I was trying to avoid making many changes to the KE25 Corolla engine and engine bay prior to getting it back on the road, but turns out the universe had other ideas for me.
Technically there wasn't anything "wrong" with the thermostat housing but there's no way in good conscience I could put it back on the car looking like that.
So, naturally, "just a water pump" became practically a 2 day event. 
Also, either the pump that was on the car is wrong or the listing is wrong, but I ended up with a t30 pump instead of a t50 which of course had different pulleys. Luckily that seems to be the only difference so I swapped those over pretty easily.
Turned up a new outlet for the thermostat housing on the lathe and also gave everything a good clean and bit of a surface on my custom surface plate...
The bolt that snapped had just a little too much corrosion on it but other than that, everything else came up a treat. 
I also cleaned a bunch of bolts and made up a new spacer for the alternator (I switched to a ke70 one a few years ago which is internally regulated) and also checked the brushes there while I was at it.

Now I'm ready for the next thing to go wrong. ✌️

I was having a look through some of my old content I was having a look through some of my old content and this still resonates with me so I thought I'd share it again.
This seems more relevant than ever, so many bleak things out there on social media.
I just want pop-punk and good times, is that too much to ask?

Finally it can be put to some use again as I clean, prep and scan the block ready for some pretty cool custom projects in the works.
