i gave my boro cai a makeover, and its a lot better now. it used to be held together with ducttape , and that slipped so the whole intake would sag into a V shape and fall off a lot. i redid it by using jbweld to attach metal strips that had screw holes, and i replaced the ducttape holding the soup can and first pipe together with a completely jbweld seal (yes, the soupcan is still there). its totally rigid now

jb weld is your friend!

 

[Xevuhtess77]

i know!!! that stuff is soooooooo awesome. this is the first time ive used it and wow, i didnt know glue could be so strong.

i have a question bout it though.... what is it made of? cause one of the tubes says "steel"..... is it like liquid steel or sumtin?

i need to learn to weld for real though

 

[2wickedtoyz]

honestly it looked better the first time:lol: why don't you use rubber couplings from lowes or home depot?

 

[Xevuhtess77]

the thing sagged like crazy before, it made like a 140 degree bend _/

you seroiusly think it looked better before?.................. you're kidding right

i couldnt find rubber couplings from home depot for some reason... i think im just incompetent at shopping. i need a female to accompany next time (just not to clothing stores)

 

[2wickedtoyz]

they are in the plumbing section where all the pvc pipes are they come in 1-4" couplings

The tube says epoxy steel resin. Whatever the hell that is.

I used it to fix a muffler / tuned pipe on my r/c car. Works good.


And heres a pic of the rubber couplers:

JBWeld is a 10 to 30 minute setting epoxy depending on the type purchased, with a steel (powder) filler. What makes it soooo good is the strength of steel (for compression loading) and the epoxy that sticks really well, and can be used at elevated temperatures without melting. Epoxy (thermo-set) will burn, and when it does it decomposes, into a crumby powder, no melting.
