Chalk lettering...a little experiment.

I've been digging on the chalk lettering/signs by Dana Tanamachi.  So I thought I would try it out. I like the way it turned out. 


New gas tank and a new part!

I am starting on the gas tank for the new bike.  I ordered a mini HD cap from Wargasser. Very Nice!
I also shaped a sheet for the frisco mount bottom.  More to come.

Got a couple things done this weekend

Finished Jim's second patch piece for his Nomad. I also welded up the Mazda Miata steering input shaft for one of my son's friends.   Productive time in the shop.

One down...one to go.

My friend Jim needed a few patch pieces fabbed up.  This is the first of two. He needs them for his Nomad project.  This was the easy one.  Started the other.  Pretty challenging.

Shaving my legs

Shaved my legs today. Silky smooth.

A little detour...

My brother-in-law needed some help with the intake for his VW engine for the WWI bi-plane he is building.  I machined a couple of 1/8" NPT bungs and welded them in the headers he bought. I like little jobs like these that break up monotony of some of my projects.

Fender...almost there.

Finish welded and dressed the seams.  Hammered the trailing edge and added a little extra material to get the look I was after.  I may have to call it done.
