Window regulator guide. If I roll it down, it goes through the guide bars below it in the picture alright, but when I roll it up, it hangs, then rolls back down since the top of it is broken.

...two pairs of this - work superbly well w/ 3090, 6900XT @ 4K/120; braided wire protection a big plus  ...also hit 4K/ 100 Hz right 'out of the box' with one of these cables and a 2080 Ti; that's kind of weird as that GPU isn't even rated for it, but I take it

Needed some more of these fittings (I'm down to five left) for my Tygon so I bought out their stock (the price was too good to pass up):

Ok, you have so many things going on in this picture, but where is the flux capacitor at?

I actually did consider adding a flux capacitor to my "collage" back when I was putting it together, but it didn't make the cut back then. Now that the pandemic is over...

I had one of those years ago.  I think I got it up to 80mph down hill with it floored one time.  Let's not talk about how "fast" it was going up hills.

It's not the engine that's the problem, it's that damn flux capacitor and its propensity to displace time. 

 

I mean, who wants to go back to 1955 at 88 mph?

Oh I still have 12 more fans left to mount once my @Spotswoodpieces show up. 

 

I use the regular Dremel to cut stuff, and the little discs only go so far, but that thing would be real nice for me. I'll have to look into getting one.
