Re: Custom Motorcycle Welding School

Kind of frustrated last night. I never liked this method of teaching. One demo with little or no explanation. Instructors and good welders all tell me the same thing. "Takes years." "Just takes lots of practice." Etc. Of course it does, with no detailed instruction. Traditional ...

Re: Gammas Galore

As I am now working less and feeling gracious I will offer my services to ride any of these bikes as needed if either of you are feeling guilty. I'll even buy the gas.

Wolfgangh, if it isn't what you are already using on your iPad, try OnShape CAD. All the computing is done on their end and you can edit...
