Roostmonkey Posted February 15, 2007 Author Share Posted February 15, 2007 Not me man. Not interested in copying a marketed product.Nor am I looking to produce solutions to all our Z car needs.I'm so busy running my business,keeping the kids in line and trying to get things done on my own car that unless I run into something that needs fabricating on my car, I dont have time to engineer/design all the goodies we all could use.I wish I did.

alexideways Posted February 16, 2007 Share Posted February 16, 2007 Roost, from the cuts I see in your pics, I'm now pretty convinced that cutting some clutches, for the Nissan clutch LSD, on the plasma is doable. What are your thoughts on that? I'm not asking you to design anything, just let me know if you think the cuts would be sharp enough on thinner material. Thanks.

Roostmonkey Posted February 16, 2007 Author Share Posted February 16, 2007 waterjet would be better.Plasma is great for alot of jobs but laser and waterjet are more precise. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Roostmonkey Posted February 16, 2007 Author Share Posted February 16, 2007 Im curious how Ron feels about my making these mounts.If your out there Ron, speak up.

Administrators RTz Posted February 16, 2007 Administrators Share Posted February 16, 2007 EDIT: But maybe a reasonable fee should go to the original designer for use of the concept.... If you insist Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest Mike Posted February 16, 2007 Share Posted February 16, 2007 Honestly, I can't believe the stir this 'whim' caused... Have at it! RON... The resulting success of "whims" are just as important as those accomplishments formed from years of blood, sweat, tears, anguish and general pi$$ing into the wind until that perfect angle is found to wet just the right spot. When the light bulb just happens to turn on at the right time and in the right place... combined with follow-through... those results are every bit as rewarding. In other words... just because the ride had no bumps... don't mean you didn't get there!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CarJway Posted February 16, 2007 Share Posted February 16, 2007 I think it looks great... If you do make a few of these, I would gladly take one, and I know of at least one other person that would too. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Roostmonkey Posted February 17, 2007 Author Share Posted February 17, 2007 Well, I by no means plan on charging enough to get rich but I'll make a dozen or so,and see what it cost me to make them At that time (Ron) you and I can talk.and then I'll post a price. I just landed in FLA and I'll be here for the week. I think I'll stay away from Daytona.When I get back I'll make em up. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Administrators RTz Posted February 17, 2007 Administrators Share Posted February 17, 2007 Roost, Your thoughts are appreciated. But seriously, don't sweat it. If you put forth the capital it takes to manufacture it and the energy it takes to distribute it, then the profit is all yours, my friend.

Twoeightnine Posted February 17, 2007 Share Posted February 17, 2007 I'm thinking the royalties scenario fits me best That would make you royalty!! You are a true gentleman. Regardless of who or where they come from, I think it is safe to say that they will always be refered to as the Ron Tyler Diff Mount. Like the cresent wrench, vise grip, or the ever famous regardless of who manufactures it....monkey wrench. Thanks for the solid design and the use of your drawing Ron.
