Busy again...

Ayup. Been crazy lately with random job bids and pick-up work, so there hasn't been much time to even be in the studio. At least I was able to drop some work at a show at Bridgewater State U.

Airheads at the Aerodrome

Ah, long ride for the weekend time! Headed out to New York's Wilcox State Park for the 17th annual Airheads at the Aerodrome. Doing some final checks on the bike this morning (Valve Clearance, points gap, quick carb balancing, tire pressure) all the regular fun before a ride.

Projects: THE PRESS

Well, while I'm still ironing out the wee details, here is the digital for a production version of the press I built some time ago. A more complete rendering will be along shortly, then these will be for sale. Details on that one to come!

Time to get this working again...

Well, I think it has been about long enough for me to get back to working on this site again, so here we are.

Finally back on the road again with the old girl. More details on all that madness to come, but for now, just turned 2000 since the rebuild and plenty more miles to go!

And mocking up a new tank after I sort of, ahem, blew up the old one. And yes purists, I am very aware it's a Kawasaki tank on a Honda, but dammit it just fits right like I want. Of course, this is going to take a bit of surgery. Of course that's the fun of it all! And last but not least, tools! Still tweaking, but learning how to use my newest addition, my Sphere Turning Attachment for the South Bend:

A made it from plans in an old Popular Mechanics issue. So far, getting there, HA! More to come later. I've been busy, time to get back to showing it.

Too long again...

Yep, got busy, then really busy, then probably just plain lazy. Take your pic.
Here's another fantastic video to keep you going.

Art Bikes...

Before I got into motorcycles, there were Art Bikes. What started as a class assignment to rethink and reevaluate what the idea of a bicycle is (a pretty neat idea to delve into) and I began building on the interaction between rider and machine and tried to integrate the two more organically.

Investment cast aluminum frame. Not functional ( which was the point), but it was alot of fun to make!

Older work

While digging around the old computer, I found a few sildes of older work.
