It depends on if the toppings need to be refrigerated or not, and what climate you sell in. Obviously something like chocolate will melt in hot temperatures, but Oreo cookies would probably be OK. I'm not sure of the best design for storing and retrieving them.

If you put the restrictor plate and ECU from a 20hp in the 9.9....Alakazam!!!.... You have a 20hp that still says it's a 9.9 on the cover. It can be done for a $100 if the Ebay ECU Gods smile on you.....Allegedly if you just remove the restrictor plate 9.9 becomes the 15hp without any further mods, but research any mod before you do it and decide for yourself 👍

I'll share my same scenario with my XC90. Unlike the S80, the XC90 has a temperature meter at the dash. This problem happened when my temperature sensor failed, rendering no temperature reading to the ECU. The ECU is smart to detect this failure, and to prevent overheating due to "no temperature signal", would run the fan aggressively and continue to run it for like 3-5 minutes after the engine is stopped.

I have watched dozens of builders videos, both experienced and inexperienced (the latter actually tend to be better as far as identifying pitfalls), in preparing to start a boat myself. One myth I have found very consistent for many builders, including some of the experienced folks, is that wetting or soaking lumber helps to make it more flexible. I have 45 years as a furniture maker and the reality is that this myth started because of the practice of steam bending. People concluded that it is the moisture that creates the flexibility. Reality is that it is the heat, not the moisture, that makes the cellulose (that is basically the glue within the wood cells) flexible; like heating plastic to make it flexible. The moisture in the steam insures that you do not dry out the wood making the surface brittle while heating and the fact that steam transfers heat energy at a much higher rate than dry air while also insuring that he temperature will never exceed 212F degrees. So soaking may help in a very minor way with some wood but the reality is that fully cured/dried wood can sit in water for years without the water penetrating any further than the first few layers of cells. If you need to bend solids you are best off to build a little steam generator of some sort and place your wood into an appropriate container that will contain the steam (In college we did some steam bent furniture for a design class by making a steamer using a propane deep fryer with a pipe attached thru the lid going into a long piece of 6" PVC pipe. By raking the pipe at a down angle and drilling a small escape hole at the capped end the steam was able to flow thru the pipe and condensed water escaped thru the hole. 12 hours in the steamer and 1/2" white oak strips would easily bend around fairly tight curves). Absolutely love all the first time builder videos.

I appreciate the information. It makes sense. I remember as a young boy, going on a field trip to a folk festival, and weaving baskets made of long, thin, rounded reeds that were soaking in a tub of water for flexibility and stiffened once dry. I can see how water alone would not necessarily penetrate thicker, harder woods.

I bought the plans for Walter Baron's 16' lumberyard skiff, and I've saved up about 4K to build it, which I think would be fun, but I haven't had the nerve to buy the materials yet. I live on the Columbia River (1 mile wide) and I'd also love to lauch the boat in the Puget Sound. Do you still like construction adhesives for securing the transom and frames?

Do you have any hints on how to program the display? The manual states I can turn off certain features that I don't want to see? Because the process steps/instructions are incomplete I can't tell whether the step is complete? Or, maybe I just misunderstood the function description. Have you found that you can hide certain display features such as mileage and incline and calories burned? All I want to see is the TIME. My display also has curious Greek looking letters as its' welcoming display? It might be the word HELLO but t's all screwed up! What's that all about? Thank you to anyone who may have some answers.

Hi. Interestingly enough I've recently been wondering the same. Each time I turn on my machine I have to remove the 3 or 4 display options I don't care about. I have not dug into how to save my preferences. It would be nice to do, but on the other hand, it takes me about 15 seconds to change things the way I like it (after doing it a few times). So, sorry, I don't know. If you do find the answer I'd love to hear it. As for the display characters, I don't think I have that happening, so I don't know.
