As part of my three post probation, this is my second post. Posts are useless without links sometimes. I'm building a 74 XS650 custom from the ground up, nearly finished, just have tyres, eat and caliper pistons to go. Before and after pics.
I have a fully equipped, but small workshop: 5M x 5M colourbond workhop, lathe, mill, bandsaw, linisher, belt grinder, grinders, polishing machine pedestal drill, Mig, DC welder, compressor, etc, so, I guess I'm a spoilt child. I do everything myself: paint, metal polishing, mechanical, electrical, fabrication, welding, machining, designing, upholstery and so on.
I worked a a welder/fabricator/spray painter for the first five years of my working life, then gave it away, but retained it as a hobby. That was back in the 60s, so, a long, long time ago.
