Latest project

[Diggers]

Hi guys. Here's some pics of my latest episode of farting about with a welder. I've tried to put them in some sort of build sequences. I apologize for the amount of pics but I get there in the end.The last photo is what I was trying to replicate. ( in case you cant work out what it is). To be on the safe side, I sought permission from the person who took the original photograph to use the image. It took 180 ft.of 8mm round bar, 150 ft.of 10mm round bar, 7 1mm cutting discs, 2 flap discs and 80 hours. I am quite pleased with how it turned out. Hope you like it. P.s. Chunko, I took on board you're comments about lack of movement in my last project ( Sean the Sheep ). I think I have managed to but a bit of life into this one. And perhaps some imminent DEATH !!!!!
Cheers
Billy.

Wow! a bit of movement going on there.
Grrrrrr.
Brilliant. Three points of contact with the floor is a good idea, always stable.
Jaws pic 1 are amazing, heads pic6 are fabulous.
Next piece of work must be the lioness tearing the Hardley Dangerous to pieces.
That would look fantastic. It is a food product.

Thanks guys. Chunko, you can break in and burgle my home, do unspeakable things to my wife, kidnap and enslave my kids, but don't EVER slag my bike!!!! he he . I know some people think they are tractors- myself included- but its my tractor and its served me well the 16 years I've had it. I know , glutton for punishment aren't I ?
Cheers
Billy

Not slagging your bike.
but big Kat savaging a bike would look great.
Then again it was a Hardley Movingson.
Never ridden one, reckon I might even like it. Hardley motor in featherbed frame sounds wonderful. Performance is about enjoying the bike to me. I ride an Africa Twin; no power no performance and a beautiful ride. Perfick.

I know what you mean Chunko. Two wheels are two wheels wether its got a tractor engine, racing engine, wasp in a buscuit tin engine or no engine. It's all about the freedom. And there's nothing like a bike ride to blow the cobwebs away and clear your head.
