New guy here!
Just wanted to break the ice and this looked like the right place.
I've been lurking around the site for about a year now and finally decided to sign up.
I'm a woodworker from Idaho who caught the bug after finding an old Columbia tank bike at the Restore. Still haven't done anything with that thing... My ride is a pre war Hiawatha bike, I think its a 194?, but not real sure... working on a pre war era JC Higgins tank bike for my wife and a Schwinn chopper (that I bought for the fork) that she decided she thought was pretty swell. Also, refinished a, not so old, huffy cruiser with/for my daughter.
Right now I'm trying to figure out how to get the front wheel from a motorcycle to work in the rear position on my Hiawatha and fit a different seat on the wifes chopper as it came with none. I also have a springer front end idea I'm trying to work out... Not quite as mechanically inclined as some of you guys but I enjoy trying.
