Completing my dream shop
 

Hi there,

Haven't really looked around but I hope to learn a bit about shaping metal and building my own English wheel. I build motorcycles and over the years have learned to weld, machine and generally build almost anything. I've had some great teachers along the way and learning to shape sheet to build my own tanks and bodywork is the last part of the puzzle.

Here's my first build, the Team Incomplete Boxer. Right now I'm completing a 2 wheel drive KTM 990 Adventure and I have a Triumph and a Guzzi waiting in the wings.

Gregor - Welcome.

Didn't see the photo. After you select the photo, you still need to click "upload" so it is on the server.

I used to live in Beaverton some years back. Irony was I never had an issues with tools rusting. Here in Texas we can have days in the mid 80's drop to mid 30's during winter months, so rust is a constant battle as my shop doesn't get enough airflow.

Hi Gregor welcome to the forum

Hello Gregor, welcome to the forum.

Hi guys,

Fixed the links. I am picking up a Diacro 24" shear and finger break in the next week. I'm dreaming of building an English Wheel - are there any FAQs or threads I should start with?

Thanks!

Gregor

Just do a search, sit back and enjoy! I'm sure their will be several English Wheel posts, just pick the one that looks the easiest!:D
Just don't use I beam, even if it's free!

Welcome, Love the bike. I am happy to see more people from Portland here on the forum.
