No Dremel so far, I only used the snips. I don't plan to use the Dremel. I'll finish up with my needle files.

I think it helps if theyre sharp, heheh, I was wonderin the same thing though myself, looks superduper x-x

Practice practice practice...You also need a glove to hold this when you work on it. Only pricked myself once so far. Here's a progress pic. I have to use the dremel for the finish. I guess I could do it with the file,but I'm lazy and I do have a dremel. Hope I have time to put on color tomorrow for everyone's benefit.

Those are so awesome xddorox.

 

[yustin]

man, you got my brain spinnin' with ideas!! Love it!!

So I got the color on there with some spray cans. I have an airbrush but like I said before, I'm lazy. I decided to demark the flames fron the black with some ripped masking tape and finished it off with some silver one shot paint. All I need now is to find some studs for the holes, clear coat and to make some brackets to put them on the bike.

I pricked myself a second time. This happened while sanding so be careful if you make one of these. I guess cleaning them will also be hazardous, cool :mrgreen:

I pulled out my one shot paint and did some more stuff. I have to wait overnite to shoot a clear coat and for my system to eliminate the lead from my bloodstream so I can post another update pic...hmmmmm...lead! Next thing you know I'll be trying to pinstripe again...thank you for this forum RR.

 

[Clothespin n]

It turned out better than anyone could have expected.

 

[Firewalker]

I love it..... nice job! my son had a look and ran down stairs to get the snips to do the fendder on his new chopper build

 

[ratdaddy]

what about spikes like yustin has on his fender for his build-off bike. It woulld be doubly dangerous then.

 

[Coronado]

Great work xddorox. It looks dangerous! :mrgreen:
