Taking it's all in the preparation to a new level. Set up for a production line now.
Nice! My tail is waggin!
It's all yours!Stolen!
For myself it would mean moving the decimal point a couple places to the right from where it is at present!Now THERE is a visual I really didn't need!
Nice work, Jim. Some day, I aspire to make it to half-assed status.
So, ran into the same problem with the XS1 sidecovers that I did with the ears.... being hung up with safety wire is fine for priming, but all that rocking to and fro ain't gonna hack it for for candy. Sure, I could lay 'em flat and just paint the outside like Marble Motors did with Mailman's covers, but that kind of, in my opinion, half assed work is beyond my OCD. No offense intended to you half assed guys out there.
Time for morefixtures..... holders... whatever. Rummaged through the junk buckets and came up with some appropriate bits.... 3/4 X .035" 4130 tubing, 1/4" mild steel rod and 1/2 X 1/8" strap. A little cuttin' bendin' and tiggin' and here we are....

Debated on building a stand to hold 'em. Finally decided screw it and drilled holes in the table to hold 'em.... close enough.

The candy gold pieces that Jim has been posting -- those are mine.
No, the Handbuilt show is for customs, and I am doing a mostly stock-ish resto. When Moto GP in Austin got cancelled again, so did the Handbuilt Show, again.Building something for the Handbuilt Show ?
Great tip Jim! I’ve often struggled with bled through edges and fine line tape. This is a way easier fix than what I’ve done in the past.Tip time.]
