prices are covid-tax-inflated and might be at their highest

Good time to re-insure though

Yea people have taken the prices there asking for FG FPVs to far......

 

In my eyes (and I own one) the value of an FG F6 I reckon should be around 40k.....

people have asked 80k plus...... I'd put a supercharged  VF HSV at 80k ( pls don't hate me guys hahah) yet people for them are asking C63 AMG money..... crazy 

 

I also own a C63S AMG and they are in no way comparable to a HSV..... I just don't get the pricing.... I know covid and no more Aussie cars etc etc.... but it's out of control haha

Anyone happen to know any good software for drawing line diagrams? Need to submit plans for a pergola. Just doing basic 2D stuff and not worth the effort of going into 3D software.

I'm basically just trying to replicate what I would otherwise do by hand. So MS Paint would be fine if you could specify line sizes.

Last time I did one I just drew by hand, but is a pain if you make a mistake or want to adjust anything.

Is it for council/planning consent? 
if so you can submit hand drawings scanned in
 

Also Bluebeam is great but expensive. 
I use CaD though so that’s probably no help, although CaD were doing an App as a free trial for a while. 
 

EDIT- sorry I just read about your by hand comments

Thanks. Is it still the same in SA that you lodge your plans and then go for it once approved? Was when I built my pergola there.

In ACT you have to appoint a private certifier who does the sign off but also inspects before and after footings are poured and at the end. Much more painful and expensive!

I got this for father's day...holy sh*t that's a spicy meatball!

 

[k31th]

looks tasty; what sort of chili's are in it?

 

happy Sunday and Fathers Day to all the chumps/champs out there

@El Andrewif you wanna do it completely manually, like MS paint, you can use free diagram software like draw.io and make it work. Its definitely not designed for line diagrams though 😋

 

 

On another note, went to my first ever roll racing event last night. It was by far the most fun I've had in my car to date. Did at least 20 runs which is more than I could say when I've been to the drags.

I think I won about 2 races 😂

Against a low 400hp skyline and a cammed commie.

 

The rest I got chopped. Still, so much fun!
I'll definitely be back, but I'll need more power to win more races 😂

[TRYME]

How much power you running?

morning all, happy Monday
