Got bored again

[dirtdobber]

Nothing to do except play in the shop. I want to make a set of cruise pegs shaped like a Indian hatchet.
So I made a miniature version to get my critics opinion, wow she's got one to.
This is around 5 inches long.

Now to make a set of pegs. This going to be fun.
Maybe a set of mounts that look like arrows or something????

Give me some ideas that would work with Indian cluture

[FuzzyWuzHe]

Maybe dream catchers?

[dirtdobber]

My wife is working on those. She makes the most wonderful dream catchers. I'll post a few later on.
She sells em somtimes. Going to make a flag pole that looks like a spear with dream catchers hanging from the top. She makes em big to way little.
Tomahawk for cruise pegs, spear for flag pole. Need somthing for passenger/rider floor boards. I'm drawing a blank on those.

Foot boards that look like an Indians head with headdress flowing towards the back of the back while the face points inwards, mmm, outwards probably to get the full effect of what your doing. You can thank me now or thank me later.

If ya have the right equipment you can cut the lines of the face and headdress (back relieve them) ? Made of aluminum and painted in the cracks of the back relief.

Im applying for a designer job at Indian, now. !!!

Read my post, would work on passenger boards, hey Im having a good day, Hahaa.

Good idea. Except I lost a lot of my tools in a trando some years ago. Could not justify the cost again. Don't do much any more exceot for myself. Some years ago I was making custom parts for bikes but it got to overwhelming. It's just a hobby. I put out a lot of brackets, cruise peg mounts adapters but it took way more time that I wanted to give. Got to ride ya know

the only suggestion I have is to make your cruise pegs on a quick release, so you can use them on your critics and I like your idea

That was going to be my suggestion. A more useful tool, pegs & self defense.

[dirtdobber]

That is a good idea having it removable.
As far as my critic, well I need to keep her. She will bust her buns to cover my back when I need it. She is not letting anyone pick on me or take advantage of me. She's my pit bull, She can cuddle and snuggle and smile wit me but she can be as fierce as a pit bull when she needs to be. She never leaves home without her 5 knives and her big mouth. Oh she is a Cherokee Indian


Got one almost done. Just got to clean it up some.
8 inches long with a 2.5 inch head. All dimensions are done by one of the originals made in 1828. I made it short because 18-20 inch handle would look stupid.
When I make something I do a lot of research to get it close to the original.

[dirtdobber]

Almost finished. The shank, handle, will be shortened. Haven't done the hinge yet. That will cut around 2 inches off.
Well it won't let me add the photos. Crap.
Finally got em.

Looking good ... gonna chrome or paint?
