High-voltage wiring for my EV conversion project using a 1962 Mercury Comet and a 2014 Nissan Leaf.

What sets the build apart from 99% of other EV conversions is that I'm using a De Dion design for the rear axle. Here's what it is and how I made it.

I began my EV conversion project by fabricating the mounting structures that would hold the Nissan Leaf's electric motor, the inverter, and the PDM. The PDM contains the charger, dc-to-dc converter, and HV junctions.

For my next EV conversion project, I bought a 1962 Mercury Comet station wagon in need of a restoration, and a 2014 Nissan Leaf that was wrecked and totaled. Here's my plans on how to convert it and everything that went into planning, testing, and preparing for the conversion.

YouTube can provide atom feeds for a channel's content, but not RSS feeds. My web site software can ingest RSS feeds but not Atom feeds. Here's how I converted the Atom feeds to RSS feeds. I used Node.js and a web server.

This is how I completely repaired the tailgate window regulator, lift motor, panel, seals and window channel felts on my 1962 Mercury Comet station wagon.

I bought a 1980 300TD (non turbo) a few weeks ago (my first Benz) and I'm trying to sort some things out. Here's the vin plate, if you'd like to decode it.

I always finish my projects like this by going out and taking some glamor shots.

I received this RMI Electra 300a, a really cool electronic piano from the early 1970's. Now it's time to restore it!

I've been using this service manual to tune up and repair my Electra 200, however it is actually for an Electra 368 piano. It's not easy to find on the net so I thought I would upload it to my website and make sure this valuable resource isn't lost forever.

I finally get to ride the bike I've been working on (and off) on for nearly two years. How did it perform? Read more to find out!

I saved the best for last: doing all of the wiring! I also had to program the Kelly controller, and here is how I did it.

There is a LOT you can do. The delivery of your child is something that the two of you will do, together, as a family. If you are able to do your part during the delivery, then your partner will love you more than ever because of it.

With the passage of the Inflation Reduction Act, the US is poised to be the world leader in fighting climate change.

It's been almost a year since I worked on this project. Time to bring it back!

It was time to make the interior look as good as the exterior!

After framing the addition to my garage, I had to install the doors, windows, siding, trim, and hardware. Sounds easy but it was a ton of work.

Etymology, sexology, and mycology are brought together in this highly imaginative study of ancient words and their obscured origins. Is there is a hidden connection between the ancient fertility and drug cults of the early bronze age and the origins of Christianity? Is the link codified in the Bible? Is Jesus an allegory for a hypnotic mushroom that mysteriously grows out of the womb of the earth without fertilization, like a virgin, emerging only after receiving life-giving rains from a giant penis in the sky? Is the mushroom the true son of God?
