Well, there's that, but it also won't throw a track or get stuck!

That's way cool.

I wish my welding skills didn't suck so badly... and that I were more creative.




God bless America.

Another stretch of nasty weather, another "I'm bored" project:





"Harley" engine from a handful of nuts and a couple of odd pieces.

Seat is the thumb pad off a gate latch.

Rear fender, gas tank and handlebars are bits and pieces of old veterinary tools.



Wheels were turned out of a piece of inch-and-a-half ID aluminum pipe, centers cut out of aluminum flat stock.

Rest is brass bits from my stash.

It looks like you could have a career turning junk into tchotchke! Seriously I bet people would buy those.

Ah, the little known "Nuthead" series, squeezed in between the flathead and panhead era. It was, I believe, about a 3 day stint....

Great work Paul. I miss doing stuff like that with my Grandfather.




I shall respect you until you open your mouth, from that point on, you must earn it yourself.
