I decided to call an end to this project because it was dragging on too long and really taking tim away from other projects that I want to concentrate on.
I kept the frame, swingarm and body (tank, fender, seat cowl) pieces and sold most everything else.
Equipment
I have pieces of structural metal (pipe, tubing) that has been laying around my garage for the past few years. I have some ideas for some tools that I want to build that will make use of this metal. So that will be my focus, in addtion to metalshaping, over the course of this year.
I am intending to build these tools:
- Belt Grinder - I have been wanting one of these tools for a couple of years now, especially after seeing different variertys of grinders based around the Beaumont Tools design. I have bought a non-working treadmill to use the DC motor from it, and have the metal on hand to fabricate most of the grinder. Having a tool like this around will be helpful when I fabricate pieces from flat metal stock that have radiuses/curves to them.
- Reciprocating Machine - I don't have that much time to metalshape these days, so I want to increase my productivity in the little time I do have. A reciprocating machine with the correct tooling installed will allow me to create compound shapes quicker. I am going for a small throat design (8") due to space contraints, but that should work well with the size pieces I metalshape.
- Metalshaping Stand with Switchable Tooling - I have had a stand I built five years ago from a couple of harrow blades and a section of round tube. It worked, but I haven't been that pleased with it. I want something that will be more odular so that I can switch tools on the post i.e. sandbag, stump, post dollies, tucking forks etc. I will use a 2" hitch receiver mounted vetically as a receptacle for other tools attched to 2" shafts that will slip into the stand.

Loan Opportunity Offered By Mr, Benjamin That Save My Family From Financial Bondage { lfdsloans@outlook.com}
Hello Everyone, I am Putri Adiratnaa single mom from Jakarta, I would like to share this great testimony on how I got a loan from Mr, Benjamin, when we were driven out of our home when I couldn't pay my bills anymore, After being scammed by various companies online and denied a loan from my bank and some other credit union I visited. My children were taken by the foster care, I was all alone in the street. The day i shamefully walked into an old school mate who introduced me to Daisy Maureen. At first I told her that I am not ready to take any risk of requesting a loan online anymore, but she assured me that I will receive my loan from them. On a second thought, due to my homelessness I had to take a trial and applied for the loan, luckily for me I received a loan of $80,000.00 from Mr, Benjamin. I'm happy I took the risk and applied for the loan. My kids have been given back to me and now I own a home and a business of my own. All thanks and gratitude goes to the help of Mr, Benjamin for giving me a meaning to life when i had lost all hope.
