Cover your ears and say something. Your voice will sound the same, by bone-conduction.

In my major, we call bone a low-pass filter. It can only reverberate so quickly, so higher frequencies are not transmitted.

Yeah it sounds much deeper in my head, but my recorded voice isn't the same as what others hear either, apparently. I have a 'mixed' voice that is highs and lows, and some of the lower frequencies don't get picked up by regular recorders. Makes me sound 10.

My goodness. I am a bass, but even into my twenties, when I answered the house phone people would ask "Hello, Mrs. MotherOfXist?"

When this first started happening when I was a kid I started answering with my deepest voice. That really should have worked after puberty.

Caught me off guard.

No accent here I call it talking maybe if I said the word YO 50 times in the video.

That's Sir Norman Foster on the right. I lived for seven years in a geodesic dome with a heated ceramic tile floor. It was the cleanest, warmest, quietest place I've ever lived.


A step up from Coroplast would be Polymetal. The local vendor here is Multi-craft plastics. Signage shops will want to sell it with something painted/printed on it. It is used by open-wheel modified dirt-track racers to build those big wings they run.

One nice thing is it comes in 4x8, 4x10 and 5x10 sheets, depending on your needs.

And here ya go ..Car is running and driving and stoping still along way to go.

Awesome!

...and thanks a 2nd time for bumping that picture of 2 of my heroes. Once you have a doorhandle to rest your left hand on, center the dome more (but not completely).

Little updates
sazall big hammer drill trimming up for some fiberglass and foam and trial fitting also this thing might work..lol

[HydroJim]

For that rear tire, you may want to go with something like this:

Avon Side Car Triple Duty Tire - Motorcycle Superstore

Since you won't be leaning (or applying power through it), the flat profile of a sidecar tire will probably make the car feel a bit more stable through the curves and less twitchy on the highway. Better contact patch and it'll probably wear better too, as the wear and tear will be distributed across the whole width of the tire instead of just the middle.
