Well i put up a thread probably about 6 months ago of my red tall bike that was about 5ft tall to the top of the seat. I added an extra bike so it 3 bike frames on top of each other. And this one is 7ft to the top!! Heres some pics of the project. It still has to be painted. If you can tell...

I needed a roll tubing bender for the new bike im (hopefully) starting. I want the bike to be curvy so i knew i needed a bender. Harbor freight sells one for like $150 but i dont have the money to spend so i figured id make my own. so far it only cost like 7 buck to make and the results are...

I got into and accident on my bike yesterday and got pretty banged up. Im just thankful that im relatively okay, accept for some road rash and a sprained ankle. I was only going about 30-35. It was my second run down my road. It happened just after i put my head down a little bit. Any reason...

Theres a 5hp briggs on craigslist for $35 but it has a blown rod. I have an extra 5hp rod at home already. Do you guys think the crank will be scarred or bent or something like that. Thanks for any help :thumbsup:

Alright guys ill try to explain this as best i can. I need a clutch for my briggs 5hp but the problem is it has a 1in shaft. The clutch is going to cost me $119 but a clutch for a 3/4in shaft is only $29!!! Is there any way i can take my crank to a machine shop and have them turn it down to...

Here is my second tall bike i made about a year ago. The seat height is about 5ft. I was planning on building a taller one but im building a mini bike now so it been put on hold. I built it by welding two bike frames together. Its pretty easy to get on, for me at least, and it rides real...

I built this about 2 years ago and it was before I could weld or know what i was doing really. Its half snowblower and half lawnmower. With some angle iron thrown in. It has a wooden brake :lol: and i could go about 25mph. Surprised i never killed myself.

Why would a 5hp birggs have a 1" shaft on it? Im putting it on my mini bike and i know the clutch is going to cost around $100. But im just wondering why. Thanks for any replies.

Im 17 years old and I just started my second mini bike last 3 days ago. The first one failed and was terribly complicated. So i went back to the drawing board and drew a scale drawing. I tried to include a picture of my drawing but im new here so im not sure if it worked. I ordered most of...

I currently have a mig welder that uses flux core wire. But i am thinking of switching over to gas. The only problem is that I weld outside and am not sure if it is a good idea. Should i switch or is it not that much different. Thanks for any input.
