Old Dog Learning New Tricks?
« Reply #15 on: October 24, 2003, 06:33:30 AM »
I was surprized to see this old thread pop up again. Angelfire must have come under new management as a lot of folks have had there accounts yanked for not starting their own web site.

Haven't been doing much modeling lately. I've been getting into something I havn't done for near 15 years. Building and riding custom (chopped) motorcycles.

Problem is, with one kid in his 3rd year of collage, another a senior in high school, I have almost zero bucks to do anything with.

I did find an older Honda (that hurts to say) with a toasted engine that the owner thanked me for hauling out of his neighbor's yard.

I have most of the impliments of destruction (welders, grinders, saws) so I don't have to lay out money for that. Anything that is to be done to the bike must be accomplished with whats at hand, so most stuff will be hand fabricated from scrap. But hey, thats the way it's supposed to be.  :aok

I've been documenting the build with a digital camera, and will post them when I find another host if anyone is intrested to see them.

Btw Diablo, if thats your work, very nice.:aok

Geez guys, if those were my work I wouldn't have Nuke making that FW-190 for me!  LOL!!    Those were just some pics I found searching for images on the Yahoo search engine and then hyperlinked them through this BBS.  I was just giving Nuke something to look at for inspiration.  

Hey Nuke, can you take photos of the 190 at various stages of building and post them here?  I think a lot of people would love to see that, including me! ;)
