Ahh well what in the works for the bumper reinforcement?

Have not even thought about the bumper in weeks...been pretty busy with a ton of other details....gonna get on it after the first of the year. Probably just re-weld it with a couple of extra gussets in the same place.

Same time I do that, going to also replace the heim joints on the panhard rod with some quality units.

Your day looks better than mine. We have sunny, but...



got an inch of the white stuff last night. Light and fluffy, so took the leafblower after the small stuff, the snow brush for the drive and sidewalks. was about half done when a kid on a scooter drove by. When I was his age I was that dumb too.

A little sunset out my back door from the other day...

Cristy, who has been with us in Customer Service for about 7 months now, mentioned she had never ridden on a Softail.

So yesterday I took her for a little 20 mile ride.

There are a bunch of Great Looking Trikes entered in the 4th Annual IBC. The latest is pictured below.

You can see all of them HERE.

btw, there's still time to enter yours, if you have not already!

The shop got a "new" used Drill Mill.

Over the last 10 years we have worn out TWO brand new $1000 drill presses.

Last week we stumbled across this 33 year old drill mill. It is in excellent condition.

They just don't make them like this anymore. This unit weighs over four times more than the drill presses we've been using.

I expect this will last another 20-30 years!

True that!

Congratulations!

Thanks. We got it from a place that bought it new, barely used it over the last 3 decades, and when they did, all they cut with it was plastic! It is in virtually new condition.

PLUS we got it for less than we would have paid for a new, gonna wear out in 3-4 years, drill press.

Thanks. Unfortunately it was not made in the USA...but it was made to older, more robust standards.

That thing like its 6 months old max.Awesome find.

btw, some had asked...it is a 12 speed with an RPM range between 85 and 2225.

We're working on some Trophies for the 4th Annual IBC.

Here's one that's almost done-

A few roughly mocked up-

These parts are nasty, so we need to run them thru the vat before starting to weld them up.

Here are a few batches, after coming out of the vat...

Tomorrow we'll weld them up.
