Thanks Kingfish. Still working on a few more details. Build till the end! Spray paint. A little tribute to Von Dutch and classic ratrodding in general! I finished the details with marking pens. I am planning on some actual paint and pinstriping in the future, but I took a short route...

Amazing!

Beautiful bike!

That is awesome! Perfect for those night rides. Pictures with a 10+ second shutter would look amazing. Or a video.

Straight from: The paint job and bike turned out very good so far. Love that ratina job!

Thanks! Reflectors for safety :rofl: These pedal blocks and nearly limitless options made me think of: This is how the bike is sitting right now: Dice!

When do we talk details? I'm in!

UPDATES I haven't done that much work on the burrito bike. Lots of thinking and weighing options. I wanted the rat fink stickers so bad on there that I tried ideas (drinking bottles, a licence plate) to put on the bike. But I realized that this was'nt the flow state I was looking for. The...

This is the first picture with the graphics on, so no shame Oddjob ;) Thank you! Yes the tent is large, although this is a mid-size compared to some of this brand. We can stand up straight in the tent but it is easier to get on your knees when you need to do things in the tent due to bad...

That looks so good! Beautiful. Thank you Oddjob! Appreciate your message. We went camping on our holiday! Stopped the build (but not the rambles!) for a while. Yesterday I worked on the pedals. I'll send an update today or tomorrow :thumbsup: Our large vehicle stuffed. The doors can fully...

Thank you John! I experienced that issue with my Basman and Ruff Cycles Porucho bike. But I do love their looks, so I'll find something in between. My geometry with 3D models: Bottom Bracket shell, Wheels and a headtube shell. The rest is open for a free sketch :thumbsup:

Your videos are fun to watch, you have a great voice :thumbsup: I liked the video where you were riding towards the 'dead end' street where suddenly a bike path appeared. I also saw quite some vehicles standing 'seemingly' still on the road. As a Dutch guy, I don't understand since people...

In the meantime looking at my other sticker option: I think it is originally from an radio controlled aircraft. Very cool on the klunker! Quality is very good. You can see the texture here. I need to trim the stickers and cut a piece from the back (can you see the imaginary lines?)...

Love that post. Von Dutch's art is beautiful too. Thank you Matti! I agree, when there is time I will think about doing pinstriping. Thanks! Thank Chad, I appreciate that! Thanks all of you.

The welding JIG is near completion. Waiting for a few materials to arrive which I can throw in the lathe. After the JIG is completed, I already have a project waiting to test out the JIG. While testing the JIG, I am thinking about doing a class course in brazing. I have my eye on a dutch frame...

Wow, love how that all turned out. That looks very pretty! What is the thickness of the BB- to frame plates? I wonder if that is stiff and strong enough, but hard to judge from a picture. :thumbsup:

That looks great! Thank you for your effort Oddjob. I'm convinced now :thumbsup: I already painted a piece of junk ral9003 to test it, how it looks against the stickers. I have more ideas, but for another time and bike build: Credits: Sardinia hot bikes.

Just some more ideas and tryouts: Last picture: Colour/lining ideas. Looking at these photos, I think @OddJob Is right, the white rims around the stickers with the black background does not work perfectly in my opinion. A blob indeed. I think that: -A lot of decals (stickerbomb?) in...

I remember rats gass, awesome build that was! And I'm gonna read about the weird-oh's, I was unfarmiliar with them. Thanks also for that tip, sometimes I do like a big white rim around a sticker or picture. I might just paint a part of that whole background white before stickering. Flying...
