  • Hi everyone,

    As you all know, Coffee (Dean) passed away a couple of years ago. I am Dean's ex-wife's husband and happen to have spent my career in tech. Over the years, I occasionally helped Dean with various tech issues.

    When he passed, I worked with his kids to gather the necessary credentials to keep this site running. Since then (and for however long they worked with Coffee), Woodschick and Dirtdame have been maintaining the site and covering the costs. Without their hard work and financial support, CafeHusky would have been lost.

    Over the past couple of weeks, I’ve been working to migrate the site to a free cloud compute instance so that Woodschick and Dirtdame no longer have to fund it. At the same time, I’ve updated the site to a current version of XenForo (the discussion software it runs on). The previous version was outdated and no longer supported.

    Unfortunately, the new software version doesn’t support importing the old site’s styles, so for now, you’ll see the XenForo default style. This may change over time.

    Coffee didn’t document the work he did on the site, so I’ve been digging through the old setup to understand how everything was running. There may still be things I’ve missed. One known issue is that email functionality is not yet working on the new site, but I hope to resolve this over time.

    Thanks for your patience and support!

I installed the P3 Pipe Guard last night. What do you all think? Don't pull punches.

It's like icecream these days. The price goes up and the size of the container goes down. By the way, it looks pretty good. It should work fine...:thumbsup:
 
Would that have been from the pre-buyout time? If the new one have that type of coverage I'd go with the E-Line instead.
I hate to think that's the case of clearing out old inventory/nonconforming material. I'm hoping I received a mis-identified pipe guard.

I think there should be more frontal coverage for protection.

Carbon Fiber products are Artwork in my mind, and require focused skill to put the ingredients together. On the guard I received the laminate work appear very good, but I don't have access to Radiography so I can't comment about subsurface work. The overall end-item quality is ok.
 
Yeah it looks great. Did it go right on without undo pushing, pulling, and twisting? That's what I hate about the E-Line is that there is only one 125 pipe guard that is supposed to be jammed onto whatever 125 pipe you have via the hose clamps.
 
The 200 guard is different . I have a couple of the P3 125 guards that are a few years old , and they look the same. They have been tested and work fine . I crash tested a Eline on my GG and it broke right in half , the P3 is in a comepletely different league.

oops, I misread the OPs first post.
Thanks for clearing it up.:thumbsup:

No. It was a struggle to get a "best fit". If formed using the correct mold, I think it should install with minimum effort.
