WOW Rodger and I posted the same link for fabrication, to weird.
But I do remember at SEMA, Rodger and I and Eric and Garage Dog crawling for an hour under a offroad race truck looking at fabrication...none of us wanted to walk away, we kept pointing and saying... Mick |
Excellent topic Rodger:thumbsup:
So much stuff i have never seen before. This book is truly "art of fabricating" :willy: http://www.kirkhammotorsports.com/book_aoe/aoe_22.pdf |

This is awesome to look at! Thanks for the great thread!
This guy does some amazing bead roller stuff: http://www.hubgarage.com/mygarage/Bi...vehicles/11280 |
WOW !!!! This thread is awesome.
I would have never thought I would be insperational to someone else. Thank you very much Cris (I think I'm going to cry). I cant' even start the list of people and places that inspire me but I will try. My biggest inperation had to be my Mom. I lost her to cancer 6 years ago. If it were'nt for her I would'nt be writing this. She always taught me to do my best keep my head up and don't let anything hold you back. I think about her every day and when things are tuff (every day) I think about her more. That's what keeps me motivated and to never give up ! One of my favorite lines " Keep doing better than your best and never letting it rest" As for all the talent in this world. Bobby Walden (good friend) one of the best metal men around he did alot of the under hood work on Shicayne and all the work on Sniper. Rad rides. Tom Hannan(Metalshapers.org), Craig Naff(Golden Sub),D.S.E, Some of my local friends Nick @ Red Zone (cage in F-Bomb) Tom Nelson of N.R.E. Every metal shaping book avalible to man(I hear there's a huge new one coming out). Ironworks, Pinkees rod shop, Roadster Shop, Steve Moal, Snick's, Rodders Journal, All the different friends and builders on Lat-G. Jesse James, to see this guy build bikes at the right time and place in history and to take it to a level and style no one else has. Thats a huge motivation and inspiration. There are so many more out there. If you have the motivation and drive like I do and the rest of us out there we will all be that much better at what we do. It will keep bringing out more talent that you thought you never had because you were inspired and motived by the people, projects, and ideas they created with there own two hands. Thanks again Roger for getting us inspired :cheers: Mark Bohlen |
