Rear wheel assebly is on!

After frame modifications,  Adam's rear wheel conversion assembly and alignment is going to work out just perfect.

Dead nuts!

Thank God for accurate measuring tools.

Slinging Lead with Metal Master Les Dunham

 Yesterday I had the pleasure of working and another lesson with metal master Les Dunham! One of the truly old school great masters of metal manipulation.

 I stand humbly in his shadow and am proud to have the opportunity to be his "grasshopper".

Here you see Les leading in the various bungs and filler neck on a Led Sled oil tank for Jaimie Jef's sportster custom. 

P.S. Factoid: Les began learning how to work with the torch and lead when he was 10 years old.
 no worries, there won't be a test on this later. :)
Have a great day

Happy Valentines Day
