Weekend Update with Sling Blad

[Sling Blad]

Well, a milestone was reached this weekend. Got the axles done with hubs, spoked out and tires and tubes. They aren't "trued", just rolling. Thought you guys might like some pics of my progress so far......

Just remember.....first time builder, first time welder, nothing is cleaned up, and I knew nothing about bikes when I started.

You're motoring along nicely. Keep submiting these updates. They're great!

looking good, just think, when your done you'll have a ton of shop clutter and want to move onto more projects.

I don't see anything looking bad, way to go. After you get where you are rolling frame will be very soon, if you haven't already got there. And after that its quick.

If I didn't know better, I'd swear that was the rear end of a DW! :D

Now that surely looks like the start of a really neat DeltaWolf. Its looking good. You'll be finished before me at my current rate of progress. Too many interruptions.

But: What's with the tidy workshop? That's not allowed. Mine's never that neat.

gotta agree with John here on both observations.
Theres something terribly wrong about a shop that tidy.:D

[SirJoey]

I'll bet his tools aren't even dirty... ;)

You guys got me all wrong! I had to pull the rolling frame outside to my back porch area because the work bench and garage are a complete and utter disaster area. I keep the back patio area clean and clear for the kids whose sandbox turtle is out there. Can't have sharp metal and tools about with kids who get into and touch everything.

My "workshop" (split between the garage and shed) are both quite messy. My wife violated good workbench ethics when she tried to "straighten up" the scattered tools. Now I can't find my round file!

Sir J, just for the record, must 4.5 inch cutoff wheel is a mess. I think I've used that more than any tool I own. It's only three weeks old. But does it save time when it comes to cutting and grinding. I'd only be about half way to where I'm at if I had to do it all with a hack saw and a flat file.
