Default A "Fabrication" section would be awesome.

A "Fabrication" section would be awesome. I really like making crap, and I know you guys do. It would be nice to have a single area to share ideas and projects instead of them spread in a bunch of different sections among different kinds of threads.

For example. In "external engine" there might be one thread showing how to fabricate coil relocation brackets and 500 threads on which lid is better. I think that fabricating is on a slightly different level than just gaining technical information.

By Having everything in one place I could also see new projects to try or what not that I would even know to search for in other sections.

Thanks!

Nice idea. I think it would be nice, though a bit clustered with tons of various ideas that really do not relate to each other. I could see a use for it, one specific area to promote ideas and brainstorm other projects, or how to improve them.

I'm for it, that actually makes a lot of sense.

especially since external engine is such a n00bfest.

We thought of including "Fabrication" in the body work and paint forum. Still under consideration.

That makes Sense. So It would be "Paint, Body and Fabrication" right?

Pretty please!
