Worth a Read: Instructables.com.

The highmileage.org racecar has finally eaten too many cones for my comfort. She needs a little TLC, and that’s going to come in the form of an el-cheapo paintjob. Now, it’s probably not a good idea to paint your daily driver by yourself — certainly not with Rust-oleum paint. But handy weekend racers love Rust-oleum paint jobs for their track cars, because the process is cheap and easy. The finished product might be called… ch-easy. (I’ll get my coat.)

Instructables.com guide DrSimons created a graphical step-by-step guide that takes the guesswork out of the process. I was so impressed with DrSimon’s thoroughness that I had to browse the rest of the site. This site is a treasure-trove of user-created project guides that can help anyone discover their crafty side. It’s the perfect complement to a user-powered site such as ExpoTV — I bet a few of our Videopinion creators would make excellent Instructables guides!

Many happy miles,
Adam
