Holy wow I hadnt looked at this one in a while you are doing one hell of a job on that bike!

Totally dig the wooden tank and the wood rack too! Such a cool touch on a bike, really neat contrast with the metal. Loving the wheelguards too the use of recycled material is so under rated!

Good work, I will check in for more progress soon! Man I wish I knew how to weld!

Thanks.

    Slowed down a bit on my bike. With all the grinding I had to do, I ended up getting a piece of metal in my eye a couple weeks ago and had to have it taken out, which sucked. Then I went back a couple days later for a check up and was told he didn't get it all out, so had to do it all over again. After over 15 years of working in auto body that has never happened, and the one project I do for fun and this happens.

I had a buddy who had a piece of metal get in his eye also. He worked auto body for years without problems until then. Just a freak thing! Safety glasses are a good idea, but a face guard is even better. Might look like a dork but better than metal in eye or worse. Just look on the bright side you still can see. 

It's coming along though. The cool thing is that the build off ends the same day I put together our local Bicycle Booze Cruise IV. So, I have a lot of work to do before then. If anyone is in the area, hit me up and bring your bike, or I got plenty to lend. Bound to be a good time.Hilton Head Is. SC. Just north of Savanah GA.Sunday April 1.

Well this is my finished project. It's not really finished though. Guess these projects never are. Just ran out of time. Came out cool though, ready for the cruise tomorrow. It's surely been fun. Every ones bikes have turned out awesome. Can't wait for the next build off.
