Default Contemplating Dedication

Hey there mentors,

I started metal working in high school, just learning how to weld, cut and bend. While working as a diesel mechanic I had a few opportunities to fabricate some minor stuff, but nothing very rewarding. Now I have reached for the moon and developed a burning desire to build my own bobber. The frame will be pre-made, probably a Honda or something cheap, with an equally cheap engine. I would absolutely love to make my own tank and fenders to work in some personal artistic touch. I love the minimalist approach to bobbers, so I want to keep it simple, but I want to gleen everything I can from this site for any potential future projects. So feel free to teach anything and everything you know!

Thanks,
Chris
