New project

Yeah, I know. Like I need another one. I bought this quite awhile ago and finally picked it up. Right now I'm storing it at a buddies place...Thanks Randy;). It's a 36 that I'll get to after the 42 is done.

Da' Shovel

Dave stopped by with his shovel the other day and I snapped some quick pics. It was originally my bike that never got completed. I was waiting for a nice set of Pan heads to complete the bike. Dave saw it and talked me into selling it to him and then ended up having me do the fab and mock up for him. He's gonna' paint it eventually, but he's just having too much fun riding it right now.

Did it again...

Just finished my buddy Chris' frame. Came in as a quite a disaster, but I got it all fixed up. The bottom rail someone tried to put in was about 2 inches too short and it was pushing the front motor mount up onto the bend at a really crazy angle. It also had some goofy "fixture" holding it together. It is now a 31 degree rake, -2 in the down tubes and -1 in the back bone...oh, yeah. It's straight too.

Raking...

No not leaves. Been raking, deraking and stretching frames for the past couple weeks. Fun stuff. I dig cutting stuff up and putting it back together. Talked to Jason at TBW and we both did some cool mods to our frame jigs.
