My girlfriend painted a cooler for me, I was wondering if anyone knows what I can use as a clear coat for it so that the paint doesn't get chipped. Most of the results I get are for plasti dip, but I know that peels and I think I probably want to use something different. Any suggestions?

There's a lot of talk lately about finding the perfect camera, and I saw an eoshd article talking about the best features of many current models. I have also seen some people build cameras using the flea cams and micro pc's. I was wondering if anyone has attempted or successfully done something...

Was in Ann Arbor today and went kayaking (left from Argo park). Passed by a house that had two PVC rails and one box set up on a hill. Looked pretty sweet, figured it was probably someone on here. Anyone gonna claim it?

Selling my 1D Mark II N and 28-200 lens. Camera is in decent shape (I'd say 7/10), I will upload pictures when I can. Bought this summer with 35k click on new shutter. Used it for a few events this past season and put on ~5k more, so there is plenty of life left in it. Comes with two batteries...

Monitor broke driving home from school, half the screen is semi usable, but it's time for a new one. I have an older Mac pro with dvi and VGA outpouts. A new graphics card might happen in the future, but I assume it will have dvi and HDMI, and this purchase will likely delay that one. So, my...

I thought it would be cool if we could give members the iootion of forwarding a pm to a text. While I don't use PM'ing a ton, this could help increase usage and add a more "social network" aspect to NS. Any thoughts on if this is possible, how hard it would be, etc.?

Not asking how to beat the test. If it matters, I go to school in PA, and am pursuing a job in MI. I was told (by HR) I would have to pass a urine test for the job I am seeking. I believe I saw this somewhere else, but I can't find it now. I got some paperwork today, and one of them was an...

Right now I have 2 500gb drives in my desktop, and a 2tb external. I also have a lot of crap, start up disk is full, and I've wanted an sad for the speed. I'm planning on backing up my files, then doing a clean install to the ssd. I want to use the ssd for system files. I also want to put the 2...

I have vacuum pressed skis before. Working on a new project now, going to be essentially pressing a longboard. Top sheet, fiberglass, birch/poplar core, fiberglass, top sheet would be the layers going top to bottom (lower topsheet just for keeping out moisture/help avoid scratches/delam on the...

I'm working on the summer ski project that was posted here a while ago. We are prototyping now, and we want to use something similar to a snowboard binding in our design. I know it is a long shot, but there are some boarders on here, and I was wondering if anyone has any old snowboard bindings...

Hey guys, I could use a little help picking a lens. This will be used on a 1d mark ii n (occasionally a 6d, maybe on my gh2 down the road). Right now, I have a helios 44-2, and a pentax 200mm f3.5, but my mom has the 16-35 f2.8L II and the 70-200f2.8L which I can use (with the 6d) when I am...

I thought this was a good example of when it can be helpful to use a higher shutter speed for video. Could also be useful to show some newer filters how shutter speed affects motion.

My macbook pro (2011 15") has taken a few small tumbles. Just a few cosmetic dents, but still annoying. I was considering getting replacement parts, because I am also going to do some upgrades soon too, like an ssd, and then a dock and display for my desk, I just got some speakers and a magic...

I have an iphone 4 with a few issues. One is a deadspot under the crack on the screen, but I can get that fixed simply enough. The backlight also flashes really fast, like between 2 brightness settings, also can be fixed with a new display assembly. I am waiting to do that until I find out if...

willing to part with my 14-42, posted it in the thread where I was selling the Panasonic/Leica 25mm f1.4, but seeing as I sold that locally, there isn't really any point in keeping that thread alive. $75, might consider a trade for an olympus 28mm f3.5 + a little cash. Can take pics if anyone...

Just saw this when I was looking around on KEH, they are giving away a $1000 gift certificate, but theres a bonus. You get an extra entry per ref feral, and if you refer 10 friends, you get entered in a bonus $2000 giveaway. Here is my link, and I would really appreciate it if you guys entered...

Selling Panasonic/Leica 25mm f1.4 lens, the DG model for M43. Lens is in great condition, I just don't find myself using it much. The continuous AF works alright during video, it does have to hunt slightly (by nature of CDAF), but it is barely noticeable. To be honest, I never really took...

I know this may not be the right place, but I figured I would find more people here who know about this. Anyways, I am thinking of getting rid of my macbook and switching to a windows desktop. Mostly, I just don't need to be bringing it around with me, though I may get a cheap tablet for...

Not sure if this is the right place, but I figured I might be more likely to find someone who could help me. Recently, my mac book pro has sometimes been acting a little strange or sluggish, though I have usually attributed this to the shitty wifi on campus (it is a 15" quad core i7 with 16gb...
