Today I made two small buss bars for my car. One for power and one for grounds.
For those of you who don't know, a buss bar is simply a piece of conductive material that is basically made into a custom distribution block using nuts and bolts.
Some people make really huge ones with enough room to hook 98234 amps to without stacking a single ring terminal, they machine threads for screws, and spend entirely too much on them. I however just made a very simple, cheap, small buss bar for my moderately powered system. These will make switching wires a breeze for future changes. I highly encourage anybody who switches equipment out relatively often to give something like this a try.
now onto the pics
(The 5 washers are there to keep the screw from going all the way through the wood, I had them on hand and didn't want to buy new screws just for this //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/smile.gif.1ebc41e1811405b213edfc4622c41e27.gif )
