Oh....what could be so simple! I'll get right on it. :)

Interesting use of a spoke nipple!

Cheers

Thanks.. I looked at that for 5 minutes, trying to figure out the significance of the images

Also.....an old frame with adjustable wheelbase, nice chromed dropouts and possibly rear triangle??
Upgraded jockey wheels........

Cheers

OT: photos of interest - not specifically about moto
 

It's kind of hard to crimp a spoke nipple. I have also found that while the colored aluminum jockey wheels look trick, the stockers perform better.

Bill-

You over thought it. Its an art photo. Well, being clean is unusual.

Drop-

Got tried of catching the frayed cable end on clothing and the nipple was handy.

Shredder-

You just need big crimpers. Also my stock pulleys were plastic and wore out a long time ago.


This current repair started with a flat tire and then I discovered the rear axle was broken. Decided to put on a new chain. Disassembled and lubed the freewheel too.

Epic failure from a long time ago-

Latest woodworking project....

Wife wanted a new floor lamp... I had some extra Oak boards, so I made her this. Nice to know I actually do finish a project once in awhile. Put a three way socket on it, so she can really light up the room if she takes it to 150 watts. Took a bunch of flash stands, and difusors to get a decent image without lots of shadows, but I still left some shadowing, to make the image look somewhat natural. Construction is White Oak, with Minwax Red Oak stain. 2 coats of sprayed Bullseye clear shellac to seal the wood before 4 coats of sprayed Minwax Polycrylic water based urethane. When using water based finish I always like to seal the wood with shellac or lacquer because the water based finish will raise the grain on the wood.

Nice. You are a man with many talents Bill. Love the glasses stand.:cool:

Nice job Bill. Your project had a purpose and had to function when you got done.

I made some wall art for my wife's birthday copying something she liked in a gallery but I was too cheap to buy. No dimension issue or function to worry about, roughly 1'x2'-

In other breaking news, the city has decided to build me a copy of the corkscrew. Unfortunately there will probably be a stop sign at the bottom.

See if they'll install an airfence for you too, that wall will hurt if you blow the timing.

Your corkscrew is not steep enough, and definitely less forgiving if you screw up.

Cheers
