Yes!!!

This is also a hack for festivals so you can find your friends at night. Just give them each an LED to attach to their glasses/hat/costume/hairclip and you'll spot them a mile off.

Also useful for taping to frisbees for nighttime play. I call it Robo-Frisbee.

you’ll spot them a mile off

Along with the thousands of others that are using LEDs to locate their friends.

Festival light hack:

Hold a torch underneath your plastic pint pot of cider. If you have big enough hands this can be done single handedly.

Hey presto: glowing, golden cider lamp of dreams. Hold it up high whilst wending your drunken way through a crowd, with your smitten disciples easily following along.

Follow the cup, the golden cup.

Also works with a pint of piss.
So I’m told.

I will use the golden cup in future, thanks for the hack.

Very off topic but when Birkenstocks smell bad (when your friends start telling you that your 'stocks smell) cover the footbed in bicarb for a day or two and it will smell less after you brush it off.

(Hack because it extends the life of an otherwise good sandal)

the golden cup

Last even longer if you wear socks.

re ? Khelys Cycle

Ooh, I like that.

nice work although shouldn't the tyre be deflated first?

Nah should be fine for an on the fly adjustment, esp if double wall rims

Is that boss welded on specially?

re ? Khelys Cycle

What a great idea for wheel truing in the frame.

Hopefully there’sa boss somewhere mounted at 90 deg so that the bolt can be stored but kept handy?

Isn't it the top cap bolt to go with the spoke key top cap?

Oh that’s clever.

Oaft.

Didn’t realize that, definitely v cool.

hall of fame for you.
