    Fancy Bicycle Racks

    I think you're "pulling our leg" with that story 😂.......... Go find @ingola and "pull his leg", mine is long enough......🤣🤣

    (past) Time to start building the front fork. A pic of parts to be used. (I forgot to include the rusty, crusty, probably doesn't function Mongoose cheep-o suspension shock/spring.) Removing the stem from the steering tube turned out to be a complete fail. So I'll include a photo of sparks.......

    Thanx OJ, that means a lot, especially since I have 3 or 4 types of mustard in the fridge and I would probably have a melt down if I had to choose which one to start with 😂 . In the future I might see what it takes to dilute the petroleum jelly and thin it some to modify the coverage rate..........

    Here is where I am currently on the patina; a cross between rust on bare steel augmented with salt water, and strategic sanding on red/black with flat OD green as a finished color. This is probably all I will do to the frame since time is getting short. If I do have extra time, I will attempt...

    I Think I Just Became a Motorcycle Enthusiast

    That looks like a "hair dryer" tucked in there between the engine and the nitrous tank.....perhaps more of straight line bike with that long 6 cyl sticking out both sides.....

    VINTAGE BICYCLE PHOTOS

    The white building on the right is now the Hippodrome Theater which when this photo was taken it was the Federal Courthouse (and perhaps the County Courthouse). Around the corner (not shown) was Rice's Hardware where, for decades, Mr. Rice kept a high wheeled (Penny Farthing?) bicycle in the...

    Cool. Thanx. I did some light sanding and I feel that it's actually looking kinda good for my 1st time....... OJ, I forgot to ask; do you apply the mustard mix to bare metal only? I do have a few locations where I have steel uncoated/unprotected.....

    I did some wiping off the oil and petroleum jelly then a little sanding and I'll try the #0000 to see what happens. The black is REALLY thin to let the red visually come thru. I am also Really liking how the petro jelly (with just a light dab from the tip of the bristles) mimics chips or other...

    Added just a little bit of black primer on top of the red. I Love the look but I want to continue with the CCC (civilian conservation corps/Lumberjacked) motif. Then sprayed on the military OD green. The "runs" and rough texture in the paint are not runs but actually the paint floating on top of...
