He can come and do my driveway anytime he wants, beer will be free and he can park in my shop.

  I just yesterday (Valentine's day, right?  Lots of free time...) thought of a way to sand my pinstripe rings  on the rims;  when I have tried that out I will toss them back at da Fubar again.

Really more co-opting an already extant device - using the wheel-lacing stand, already at hand, as more or less a simple ruler...

The reassembly of the bobber has (finally) started;  still hoping to finsh the bike for $1000, though the Avon Speedmasters, at $300,  were not helpful in that vein.

...something you never see: open primary on a unitized engine ;D   Had to dig into the engine to the extent of replacing the camchain, the old one was a bit stretched and flailing enough to be filing off bits of the motor from the inside, resulting in some visible chaff in the oiling system.  That's pretty much all the slack in the budget spent - at $800 now - and it could still blow, or more likely leak, at any seam...
