SELF INTRODUCTION: Hi Dan, thanks for your time and energy spent on this new board. I hope you will give me a waiver on the email account, I have used gmail so long I don't have a clue what my service provider account is.
I just returned home from a 2 week trip in New Mexico, have a few good pix, can't wait to share my off-highway traveling. Got to put 1400 miles on the scoot.

SELF INTRODUCTION: Hello everyone. first of all a big thanks to "Dan the Man". Some of you know me from the previous (2) boards and some don't, so here goes. I have been a fabricator/welder for over 40 years now. Damn that's a helluva long time to do anything! Anyways, I have built literaly 100's of street rods, pro streeters, racecars, bikes and trikes over the years. Never made the headlines and never will. I do what I do because it is the love of my life.
I enjoy reading the posts on the forum and try to contribute when I can. I am sure that this will be every bit as good as the CBH forum, as we will have most of the same folks. Good luck and post a lot of pics!! Jim

SELF INTRODUCTION: I was on the last board as bonustoolkit. I have changed that to my given name.
I started a project build there " File and Fit." I paln to continue that when I go back home in Dec. 2011. I first joined the board when Gary W had it in the year 2005. That was the time I really gained an interest in building chops. I have a long way to go, compared to some here.

Hi folks, I'm back. Glad to see this is alive still despite the setbacks, this is still the best 'nuts and bolts site by far with all the tech info available.

Really sorry to read some of the sad tales of hardship that you guy's have suffered here. NZ has taken a bit of a pounding
economically and enviromentally also. I found things a little tight with my own business but got through it OK and things
are looking pretty good now which allows me to focus on the million projects that are going on.

I hope to start posting some stuff soon with various projects and have a few tool projects that may be of interest. :auto-biker:

I went to his site and read some of his project posts. He would be a good contributor to Gary's magazine.
