"needs handlebars"



Pfft.  Who needs handlebars, just hang onto those huge turn signals.

Hmmmm

Now I wish I had held onto that K100.

 

Wait, no I don't. Not at all.

inspiration

for me at least.
Afraid I don't have any info on who built it or when (though I suspect it's newer despite the tricky iphone old photo aps and all) but I dig the stance and think you could really pull in the birds with a classy whip such as this. found on chop cult (does this make me gay?)

Spent the day in the mountains

Clouds were fucking me up. Out by Prizeren. Low threat and the people don't hate us out this way, so we stop for coffee at the cigarette restaurant and can enjoy it a little more.

Work

It's nice to be handed a blueprint for something friendly and familiar.  A piston!  The aluminum stock shown here will be lathe cut into a huge piston for some kind of diesel prototype. Here, I'm milling the fixture to hold them in the lathe.
