Thread: What are you working on?

Nice!
Seems to be a few of those big Herders floating around.
It should be great all pinned up.
What are you thinking for collars?

I have one of those Torrey's but didn't know if it was really them & if so, much later one?

I would have to go and look for the information but off the top of my head I would have to say they are from the later years.

I haven't been doing much of anything after hurting my back. I am working on my Harley when I feel like I can. My lift was working w/o the bike on it but under a load, it wouldn't lift. I had to take the air ram apart which is 6" in diameter & I bought a seal kit for it. It has a flat "pancake" piston in it with one seal on it & when I went to remove the seal, it broke into pieces. That's what was wrong with the lift. Now I've been tearing it down for a new frame.

Nice fit on those scales to the blade Mike. I love when the spine line is just right with the scale shape. And the repairs on the horn scales will be interesting to see in the end. Still looks like some delaminating going on but I bet you will fit that when the sanding comes around. Fine work my friend!

Thaeris could also post there as well. Lovely stuff!
Would benefit the forum with that kind of work.

I'll do that too ! :-)

I'm thinking of rosettes from Austin. I think I have a set in N/S or SS. If not, I got bullseye, domes, or my own domes. Depends in what catches my eye, and looks the most appealing to the scales.

Got most of our stuff moved to our new apartment today. It has been a LONG, chaotic, frustrating, exhausting day.

Wife can't find $omething IMPORTANT and we're $eriou$ly concerned.

Moving is stressful. I’m glad I have not had to do it for a long time. Sorry you are in the midst of it.

I have the same lift and jack, Steve. You just reminded me to put some oil in the air inlet soon!
