  • I need to find someone who can convert VTR tapes to DVD?

    I have 6 VTR master tapes from an old TV show we used to have on Public Access. I'm looking for a way to get them converted to DVD so I can share them with friends. I tried doing internet searches, but there's only one company that comes up and they're in Japan. Does anyone have a source for this in the USA?

  • Can you help me find a fantasy tire in real life, or one that's close enough to what I need?

    I've already asked this, but none of the previous answers were enough to get a tire with. I thought I'd get better results if I described the tire better.

    I'm making a fullscale replica of a vehicle, and it needs a set of wheels/tires.

    Here's a rough draft diagram of the wheel (cutaway), along with dimensions on it..

    http://www.deadguy.net/images/Fantasy-Wheel.jpg

    The dimensions shown are "absolute values", but there's leeway in choosing something that's close, feel free to round them off.

    I recognize that a tire/wheel of these exact specifications is not likely to exist. I can't do a custom tire/wheel, so I'm trying to get as close as possible. I suspect there might be something out there in terms of construction wheels, or extreme offroad wheels, but I can't seem to get enough info on what it is I'm looking for.

    I need a full tire spec and supplier, for rims and tread. In other words, I need to take an answer and use it to go buy an appropriate tire. Anyone?

  • Fantasy off-road Tire Sizing problem? What's the closest size?

    I've managed to size a fantasy car tire at: 538/53R20

    This size doesn't seem to exist... so what's my closest substitute, and where would I be able to find it? In theory (and appearance) a construction or Off-road tire might be closest, but I haven't found ANY sizes or size reference charts for those.

    The fantasy tire has a Diameter of 42.5 - sect.width of 21.2 - Sect. height 11.2

    I'll award best answer based on how useful your information is.. To me, the best answer is the most useful one, so even if you've given no actual answer, then maybe a link to construction tire sizes/size charts would be useful.

    Thanks!
