I've worked my way into some extra cash recently by going through Ye Olde Scrappe Pile and selling the copper & aluminum (copper goes for $2.70/lb, aluminum $.60/lb) so the decommissioned solar water heater panels have netted me enough to move forward on some long languished projects... as well as some gear upgrades! Yes, I've been going eBay crazy!

You remind me of a guy I used to be in a band with. he could build a motocycle from scratch, build a computer from scratch, and was a licensed pilot. And oh yeah, he new the guitar inside and out.
I can't even put drums on one single song after 4 days of trying.

What a boring old fuck I must seem to you people...
So I've been playing with my wood, right?
I had to cut the big board into shorter pieces, which meant that I had to figure out which end of the board I wanted to use to make this amplifier cabinet. This was the nicest board they had at the lumber yard, but it's still...

So the post office is a bad place to work for is it? I guess that rules out trying to get a job at the post office, I saw some jobs posted for it last week.
I know I do, to tell you the truth the only reason I stayed at that place this long is because me and her became good friends, I don't have many friends so I knew when I came to work that I would have at least one person to talk to, I have become friends with other people there but she was my best friend. I'm afraid that I will have to get another factory job, I told her that if she can't get her job back I will get a job with her, she doesn't have a car and she was ridding to work with her ex boyfriend who she still lives with, I hope we can find a job we can both do that isn't a factory job.

I would love to start my own business but money is an issue seeing as I have so much debt, I would love to start a photo studio, I have everything I need to start one but no where to put it.

I want a workshop!
I don't know what I'd do with it but still...
Awesome logo!

Now I see where Birch Street (mine) gets it's name. B O R I N G.
I meant to mention earlier how awesome the logo looks polished. You had stated (before polishing) that you weren't totally satisfied with the uneven lines. I think, and especially after polishing, that really kinda makes it. If the lines were perfect nobody would consider that it might be handmade. Dude, a cigarette sounds sooo damned good right now.

you're right, I think i will go post it over there. the seat will definitely be a cafe style boat tail solo, so a compartment is something I'm hoping for. Fiberglass or sheet metal I guess is the question. I'm ham-fisted with glass, so it would weigh a ton by the time it was done. everything is done and together after a late night marathon. I got it to fire with the gas in the float bowls last night and was surprised that it didn't seem that loud, I'm anxious!
-battery- I've heard that with the stroker & big bore kits the battery/starter team gets a real workout, so smaller might not cut it. getting rid of kickers was really stupid in my opinion. put 'em both on there & let the kids ditch the starter weight and the fogeys can replace the kicker with a billet cup holder or whatever.

feeling any better yet? it fucking NICE out here finally. What did you use to cut that Belshe logo out with? looks like a shitload of work. hate to make you jealous, but I bought a 110V plasma cutter on craigslist a while ago, when I saw the logo I thought about how pleasantly it cuts and how much sweat would have to go into cutting and filing something like that logo by hand by or dremel or wire band saw or anything else I could imagine. I have a hard time holding the cutter steady though, especially on a pot of coffee. could mess up something intricate quick.








I posted this pic in SGVegas and it confused some folks who've never lived where there are opossums. "how could someone mistake a ferret for a cat?" "oh, it's an opposum. how could someone mistake a rodent for a cat?" "Oh, it's a marsupial?" "how could..." "Oh, it's a joke flyer? and it's funny if you know opossums?" enjoy:
Hey, do you guys have Discovery HD? I don't but I'm going to see if my dad will record that Motoczysz documentary. I could send you a dvd-r if you want.
