Ditto hear.
At first I couldn't believe the work the guy was doing. F'ing conduit cut with a hacksaw blade.
Then I was even more shocked by all the guys on there thanking him for the help.
If you look at the posts though there are multiple posts from guys that are blow buddies with the OP.
Double shot!!
geez you guys are so up yourselves with all your poncy factory made anodized gold-plated wanky shit. When have you ever got the fucken hacksaw and file out and made something from scratch?

Its safe to say that he skipped the file part.

I cut some pipe with a hacksaw once, I usually just do the job properly with heavy machinery..

WTF is everyones' problem?? The guy stripped his forks and lowered the ride height with spacers. So fucking what?? I've done it on regular damper forks. Lowers the height without having to raise the forks thru the triple clamps. The guy used the tools he had available. What's he supposed to do, pay some parasite 80 bucks an hour to do it for him? Jesus, the pompous ohlins/latte brigade around here are so far up their own importance it's not funny...

Yeah .It's his bike.He's entitled to fuck it up if he wants.

If you did want to lower the front el cheapo, why would you not lower the forks through the clamps ? Spacers are just reducing the suspension stroke are they not ?

I've worked on forks where the cartridges had been stripped with stillsons, flakes of metal that had been chewed up by the jaws had dropped off into the fork oil, circulated and jammed in the valving, 2 broken scaphoids and a trashed bike were the result for that have a go hero.
Double shot!!
Probably he could have used a strap wrench rather than the stillsons.

....should have used a proper cartridge clamp to avoid distorting the "roundness" of the body.
That's if you care about/have any idea about stiction etc
Edit: or have any appreciation for good engineering practice
