Re: So...What do I do??

Thanks Dan! I just finalized the deal to sell it to one of my best buddies. He's actually my Harley mechanic. Looking forward to seeing what he does with it. I sold it for about what I had in the new primary drive. Doh! It's been sitting in front of my EDM machine for years, so I'll have some much n...

I gotta admit, I do think that pic of the springer sitting on my surface plate is pretty cool. :obscene-drinkingcheers:

Re: So...What do I do??

Jim, Yep it's a Gary springer. I'm a machinist and build about a dozen of 'em about a decade ago. Got rid of all my springer stash a while ago. Pretty sure I even got rid of all the fixtures I made up for doing them. Funny about projects. I'd love a 32 Ford someday. Unfortunately they'll probably al...

Great advice, I've been thinking along those same lines. Thanks. I've also been kicking around the idea of trading it for a car project or....

So...What do I do??

I started this thing a really long time ago, like really long. Haven't touched it close to a decade except to steal the shifter for my 47 GMC. I lost momentum more than a long time ago and know I'll never finish it. (And I'd really like to get Hose-Dragger his plastic motor back.) It's become a ment...

Dusty
Well...Does thinking about it count? If so then yes. I've been thinking about it lately. My brother was just asking me about it. I still have good intentions.

I did get this thing on the road. Fun project and a ton of work.

I built a bike with help from the “Chopper Handbook” community back in 2006. I’d just like to say that the bike is still on the road. You may remember it as it was the cover bike for “The Horse, Backstreet Choppers” April 2007.
I remember that totally! Good to hear from you .

Thanks for that site! Very cool.

Hey Dan, Was gonna get a hold of you to see if it was your year to head back to the good ole USA, but figured I'm so busy I couldn't get away to meet up with you for lunch anyway.

Re: Indian Mark's 1911 build

Any progress? Dusty Sadly no. Work was really slow this spring and I had time to finish up the slide, but I didn't have it. Was planning to have someone else do a tricky undercut area with a machine I don't have. Didn't exactly work out. By the time I got the slide back, unfinished, I was slammed w...

Re: Indian Mark's 1911 build

Update: I have a friend/acquaintance that works for a customer of mine. They have a CNC EDM machine that can put a tricky undercut in my slide with ease. He's had my slide for over a year and hasn't had a chance to get to it yet. It's always "in the next week or two". I'm gonna grab it nex...
