I think by the time you get the real Beemer badges, SS bolts, materail, anodizing, and labor to produce the clamps, you'll find Motoyoyo man's deal too honest.  |
of that I am sure. I wasn't implying he was taking anyone for a ride. of the research i've done its a hell of a deal.
really what I was saying is it gives me a chance to mill the parts seperatly and delay the cost factor over time.
I could squeeze out a couple hundred bucks a few times, but the $650 it would innevitably cost (with all the crap) in one chunk is a bank buster for me.
silver spoon on a paper plate here.
you guys have no idea how excited I was to see these things drawn up even. they're more than fantastic. function AND form... please!
its exciting to me to see things like this done. i've always been a big fan of work done for the sheer love of something. I think these parts really exemplorize that. done for the love of something. its easy to spend $500 and wait for someone else to do it or never at all, but ah the work to achieve that on your own I truly envy.
I suck heavily at AutoCAD and most other 3d programs I have been tinkering with. so its inspiring to me to see it done.
awesome stuff guys. really awesome stuff.
but since x-mas is coming, i'll be extra extra good to the wife and her family
