No more work on the bike, but went on a good exercise ride yesterday. Trying to make a good weight for my annual physical weigh in this week.

BROTHER B GREAT WORK. THIS IS WHAT I THOUGHT OF WHEN I SAW THOSE CRAZY PIPES!! GTB!! PEACEView attachment 204756
YES THEY WERE BROTHER. EATING CEREAL, READING THE BOX AND DIGGING OUT THE PRIZE. HAHAHA
This tank and build gives me a good βJetsonβsβ vibe! Vintage space age!I need to start making the tank more than just a taped together mockup. I decided to work on the nose piece first.
I had thought of slicing it so that it would match the diameter of the bat, but I kinda want the option of it being removable, just in case I have time to put some lights or a horn inside.
So, I decided to make some slices to the vented slots and then initally roughly bend the tabs in a little to see if my idea would work. It shows promise.

By the time I get around to this thread thereβs four dozen new pictures.You can probably choose to not automatically load all pics, and then just click on the ones you do want to see (new ones) one at a time.
Awesome progress, love the lines of the fins and chaincover.
Tank looks good too, would love to see some fins or canards on them, but that is a personal guess.
The lamp looks great too.
The earlier pictures with the MIG, trains are great for inspiration indeed, many ideas going through my head. Too little time![]()

But last night was bad because Apple and Microsoft were both pushing updates, so my wire was hot all night long.
I did get to see the pictures with the tank nose this morning.
