crxvtec91 Insisted I post up in here. Why? Who knows. Evidently my original account was lost in some sort of hosting FUBAR. *shrugs* Whatevs.

Here's some of what I've been up to lately!

CB450 frame:

I detabbed some of the frame and am going to be constructing a seat pan and battery tray for the above bike bike.

I've got another bike that is in for a custom SS 2-1 header and frame mods to fit this custom body that is going to be 'glassed at some point:

Welding reinforcement plates to the frame for a standoff to raise mount the body to:

In action tacking:

Custom extended shifter:

Working on my own tri-y:

Hmmmm . . . What do we have here?

What could that bizzare looking thing be for?

Some of you may be familiar with these pieces of poo:

The collector fell off. Clean crack right through the effing weld. The header had already had nearly every single weld crack before, but it was repaired by someone competent. Then the collector fell off. So I got to thinking . . . What can be done to improve that piece of crap? 2.5" collector on a D-series engine? Sure. That's optimal.

Pie cuts are at home on this forum, right?

It took a while of test fitting and changing a few things around to fit as per my customer's requirements, but eventually it ended up looking like this:

And then this:

Before I welded the header to the new collector, I took the liberty of cleaning up this:

Isn't the the kind of collector you love seeing on a $700+ header, custom made for your engine?

After 10 minutes with a crap stone on my grinder:

*shakes head and walks away*

Tacking in place:

Gaps:

Stop! Hammer time!

Aaand my angle was a little off:

Starting to get the hang of this round stuff:

Adjusted the angle:

Hanger, because race car! (Unlike Bisimoto's hard parker crew!)

Installed and idling:
Bisi Beaver Idle Video Fixed

His first pull with the header:
Autobionics All Motor Sohc Teaser

That is open header, gentlemen, a term I will use loosely around these parts, since most of you probably have floppy vaginas.

Hopefully he'll get to the track

And these are for an upcoming project:

This summer is going to be a very interesting and productive one.

Pie cuts and bisi diss? Welcome! Do work son! Pr0n is mandatory. You know this.

*shrugs* I don't do porn. If that's a problem, I will just melt into the background like I did before. I mostly just wanted to access the fab forum for ideas.

It's good to see ya here Matt. I have a '74 450dohc waiting for me to finish my shiny car... Solid work. Keep it up.

how you like that Neverlast?

highroller54-
You have no idea how weird I actually am . . .

Hey, Fowee! Thanks. May is going to be a busy month for me. I'll be posting everything to my blog.

JohnHandcock-
It's an Everlast 250EX. I like it a lot. It has some faults, but, the arc is stable the machine is easily adjustable (I truly prefer the knobs vs. Miller's menu system) and it is very efficient. I got a real torch, though, and the next thing I buy for it is going to be a better foot pedal. The one that comes with it is perfect for Herman Munster. I've done a LOT of welding with Miller machines, some with Lincoln and even a bit with Thermal Arc. This one is just as good as any of them. It has everything I need and nothing I don't want. I love the pulse frequency adjustment. I don't use it for lame "pretty" beads. Setting the pulser correctly helps keep the puddle on corners when you are doing precise work. That slow .5-1Hz stuff is for tards with no puddle control and can make for weaker welds.

I've been stick welding with it recently, too. The "dig" or arc force setting is extremely useful. I love the way this thing turns down for welding THIN aluminum. I think that this machine has better low amperage AC arc stability than either Miller or Lincoln.

sewell94-
Thanks for the compliment!

Nice to see you over here Matt! Work looks bitchen as usual

The_Beave · « **Reply #11 on:** May 10, 2012, 05:42:55 PM »

Thanks, guys. Next week starts me living in the "shop" (a friend's garage I've taken over) making some decidedly cool stuff. =)

This place is hilarious. Sometimes a well known OG pops up and does the intro and doesn't post the porn, in fact out right refuses. the entire site descends on him like vultures and he gets the boot with the quickness with almost everyone calling him a niggerfaggot and saying if hes too god to post teh porn he can GTFO. ....other times an OG pops up and does EXACTLY the same and the same people are like "Oh ok cool then." and no one cares.

Oh you guys, yall make me lulz.

Cool bike dude, like the fab work.

Yeah there has been a big lack of porn here lately.

I bought the powerpro 250, but have only used the stick welding and plasma torch as I scrape together cash for an argon bottle. Can't wait to get the gtaw running.

The_Beave · « **Reply #19 on:** May 22, 2012, 01:18:20 AM »

I tend to stay away from 'all in one' packages. I would like a plasma cutter in the future, though.

Still no porn, but I offer this:

Three projects from now, or, very early June.

Where are you going to put the turbo flange?

Or, more accurately one what that actually leads too.

one thing I never understood with headers was the massive choke points people put in them
