General Stuff You Should Have in Xmodding

Here is just some pictures (Work-in-Progress thing right now) of stuff you should have in xmoding, allong with comments and why:
Music:
You should always have good music. Keeps you from getting bored, keeps the creativity up, and if you listen to Serious Faction, you'll have a few laughs. Basic stuff:
Supplies:
CA/Glue:
I use ZAP! glue for everything, and it holds good, good for 300+ pounds! We build balsa wood bridges out of it, lock diffrentials, fix broken A-Arms, that kind of stuff. Plus you can glue your buddy's fingers together (not hand to....) when he passes out...
Fuel Tubing:
I have a Nitro Truck, so a few extra feet is always good to have on hand. But this is also good for using for shock preload, and it stretches, so you can use it on all kinds of places...
Grease/Lube:
Lube the gears and they will stay quiter. Lube it so it won't burn. Use the high quality stuff, not the crap that comes with the xmods. I use Team Associated lube, and even use it to rebuild the EZ-Start (EZ start my...) on my Revo...
Knife/Files:
Very useful. You can cut stuff with it, then file it smooth. Tight fit? Sand it and cut it down a bit until it fits. You can also put CA on the file or tip of the knife, and then apply it to small, tight places.
Helping Hands:
Good for soldering when you need to hold a Deans and a wire together while you hold the iron and the solder to it. Also makes it so you don't burn your (or your wifes') fingers. Add some fuel tubing to it, and the 'claws' won't cut and dig into stuff as much.
Caffine:
Good stuff. Start small (less than 100mg), or you get shaky. This stuff is good for those late night, tomarow is the deadline type builds. Also helps you get through High School and College. I consume at least 150mg of caffine daily, usually upwards of 2000mg of caffine a week, mostly on the weekends and on test days...
(That's it for now, more later. Comments welcome!:_)

So Mr. Super engineer, can you explain where does your car get the extra current needed for the motor??
This current is near 2 amps at 9 volts with a stage2, you will never get those numbers with a 9v.
And hey I dont think you now more than Hpi.

Re: General Stuff You Should Have in Xmodding
didn't you already post this?
I personally enjoy NOS and monster myself. Not to much or to little.
from what i hear about the cocaine energy drink, it has 450 % of the caffine that redbull has, so that would be 360, right? thats quite a bit, if you ask me. as an athlete i stay away from that stuff. :D
ps- anyone heard of ballz (energy drink)? its pretty good, tried it once when i was at an all night console party. tastes like a mild sprite, but it definately kept me awake. :lol:
I've heard that RedLine stuff is wild. Like if you don't eat enough before you drink it you'll start sweating like crazy and throwing up and stuff. I know a couple people from a computer forum I go to that drink that stuff to stay up all night at LAN parties...
:lol:

Hey I noticed you edited my post with that dudes myspace adrress in it, sorry 'bout that I fo'got you cant like post that cause Its spamming anywhom yea sweed I never seen that movie.. theres this energy drink called "Cocaine" (the legal alternative) that is the equivalant to like three redbulls or something.. they dont sell it in kansas beacause its killed people from O.D'ing on "cocaine" lol
cant get any of that up where i live. stuck with soda here.
i have never seen a redline. where u get one them??? also its not the caffine that u want in an energy u want the taurine. or how ever its spelled. and in my oppinion amp is no good. dont taste as good as red bull and aint as effective. but then again i drink so much red bull that no energy drink that i have found does anything for me anymore. but i will drink just bout anything. its just kinda wat ever u like.
hey sweed, that glue bottle says keep out of reach of children. what are you doing with something like that? :lol:
Ignore the trolls please.
Engineer wanna be :P You cant even put a 9v battery. It doesn't last long and it will fry your electronics clean. a moderator may want to remove his myspace because not anything on the has to do with xmods. :evil: no one likes spammers!

Scroll up...
See the energy drinks? They are more than a red bull...
Red Bull: 80mg of Caffine. Sleeping Pills.
Vojo Energy Mints: 80mg of Caffine. Caffinated Food...
Amp: 130mg of Caffine. Okay stuff.
Red Line: 250mg of Caffine. You'll loose five pounds...
Red Bull is too weak for my taste. It's like sleeping pills....

You do realize most of us are strangers, right?
[quote:3b68698398="Dorito"]hey sweed what kind of guitar is that?
It's a Yamaha. I'm not sure on the model, my dad's GF bought it at the Pawn Shop... All I know is that it's the same model as the guitar at the end of the movie "About a Boy"

Hello. I'm a guy. We are all guys (well, I'm not sure about Texan...) on this forum. I'm also a male, age 15. I think I will report you to the police, as well as myspace, saying you are making me uncomferatble. Good bye. Get out of my thread.
