This was a post by the machine http://machineshed.blogspot.co.uk/ the machine is an ozzy dood but he understands exactly what this American is saying ..http://crocustoms.blogspot.com.au/2012/03/soulcraft.html
check out that link to see what im on about.
i read it and understood and was unbelievebly angrey . why because the way that we English have lay on our back and let this country down, i have nothing against other countries manufacturing stuff , i have a Harley and a Triumph and i love 'jap' bikes, but England used to be the centre of the world when it came to building bikes . SHEFIELD STEEL, LOTUS, COSWORTH  and most of the team that is building a car that may do 1000MPH .i heard a M.P. on the radio saying that other countries manufacture goods cheeper than us in the UK so we should concentrate sending our youth on a path of learning computer skills insted of working with their hands, TWAT.
 If you fly the flag in England everyone thinks you are a facist and a hooligan, my friend was in the army for many years, protecting our rights and other peoples rights, he put a "UNION JACK" in his garden and was paritioned to take it down( he refused and the naibours have had to get used to it.) nobody in England is alowed to be patriotic The Welsh, the Scots and the Irish will fly the flag without fear of ridicule.
i envie the Americans on the fact That thay are proud to fly the flag and buy american.
good luck to you all and dont get bought down to a level of being ashamed of who you are..
i think we should fly the flag and suport the local hardware store and support the local enginere and be proud to say that we are British, or if your American, Dutch ,German or what ever country you come from, dont be afraid to be patriotic  and make money for each other.

ANTI TAMPERING LAW!!!

 THIS BLOKE WITH A MIC' IS AN "M.P."
LAST NIGHT I WENT TO 'BRIDGE MOTORCYCLES' WHERE "M.A.G" HAD PUT TOGETHER A QUESTION AND ANSWER SESION REGARDING THE NEW LAW WHICH (IF IT GOES THROUGH, WHICH I THINK IT WILL )  SAYS THAT NOBODY WILL BE ABLE TO FIT NON TYPE APROVED PARTS TO YOUR MOTORCYCLE. ALL BIKE BUILDERS WILL BE OUT OF A JOB AND ANY ONE WHO LIKES TO BUILD STUFF IN THEIR SHED WILL HAVE TO SIT IN THE HOUSE TWIDDELING THERE THUMBS INSTEAD.
ALL BIKE ABOUVE 50CC WILL HAVE TO HAVE ABS.
AND WE WILL ALL HAVE TO WEAR HIS VISABILLITY JACKETS.( I DONT KNOW ABOUT YOU BUT I DONT WANT ANYONE TELLING ME WHAT TO WEAR..)
PLEASE CLICK ON THE LINK AT THE SIDE OF THE PAGE TO TRY AND STOP THIS. EVEN IF YOU LIVE IN ANOUTHER COUNTRY AS IF IT HAS HAPPENED TO MOST OF EUROPE AND IT HAPPENS HERE IT WILL HAPPEN TOO YOU ASWELL.

 IT WAS A GOOD TURN OUT BUT UNFORTUNATLY THE "M.P." KNEW FUCK ALL AND COULD NOT ANSWER ANY OF OUR QUESTIONS.

 BUT ON THE GOOD SIDE I DID SEE A NICE TRIUMPH. I DONT LIKE NEW TRIUMPHS BUT THIS LOOKED REAL COOL.

SPORTSTER PT 9 (I THINK)

 GOT MY NICE SHINEY WHEELS AND SWINGARM BACK FROM 'DOWIE' WHO SPAYED THEM IN RETURN (AND MAYBE SOME MORE PAINTING, I DONT WORK FOR FREE, BUT IM CHEEP, AS ANY EXCUSE FOR MAKING MYSELF BETTER AT SOMETHING IS ALWAYS GRABBED WITH BOTH HANDS) FOR A FRAME HE WANTS BUILDING WHEN I FINISH THE SPORTSTER.
THE TANK AND SIDE PANNELS ARE WHAT I JUST PAINTED ( THE PHOTO REALLY DOSNT DO JUSTICE TO JUST WHAT A SHIT JOB I DONE). BUT DAVE IS GUNNA 'MATT LACQER THEM, THEN THEY WILL LOOK SUPER TOUGH.

 NOW! I WANTED THE WELDS ON MY BIKE TO BE A FEATURE BUT INSTEAD THEY ARE A BIT OF AN EYE-SORE, BUT AT LEAST I'M A BIT BETTER AT 'TIG' WELDING STAINLESS NOW THAN I WAS BEFORE.

NOW ITS TIME FOR A "NEWKEY BROWN" . SHIT I HAVENT DRANK THIS STUFF SINCE I USED TO GET LEG-LESS IN THE LOCAL ROCK CLUB WHEN I WAS 17. APARENTLY IT SENDS YOU MENTAL, WHICH MAY EXPLAIN A FEW THINGS...

SPORTSTER PT8

 FINALLY I MANAGED TO FINISH PIECING HE EXHAUST TOGETHER.
I TRYED TIG WELDING SECTIONS LAST NIGHT BUT I WAS STRESSED AND IN A RUSH SO ALL I MANAGED WAS TO STICK THE ELECTRODE TO THE WORK OVER AND OVER AGAIN, YOU JUST CANT TIG WHEN YOURE IN A RUSH SO I LEFT IT AND TRYED AGAIN TODAY. ITS AMAZING HOW IT WORKS WHEN YOU ARE CALM.PROVING THAT IT'S TRULY THE "KUNG FOO" OF WELDING TECHNICS. (KUNG FOO MEANS "HARD WORK")

ITS A LITTLE DIFFICAULT TO SEE ON THE PHOTO BUT I MANAGED TO CUT AND WELD TWO SECTIONS AT A SLIGHT ANGLE. AND WELD A CUT SECTION INBETWEEN. THANKYOU RICHIE FOR THE INSPIRATION (I DONT GIVE YOU ENOUGH CREDIT FOR YOUR WISE ADVISE)

 I THEN SQAUSHED ONE END OF THE, BIG 'INTERMEDIATE' ,SECTION INTO AN OVAL AND WELDED IT TO THE SECTIONS THAT I HAD SPLICED TOGETHER. THEN WELDED THE WHOLE KABOODLE ONTO TWO SECTIONS THAT SLIP OVER THE PIPES. (SIMPLES)

THE PIPES JUST NEED WELDING COMPLEETLY . THE END CAN WILL BE CUT DOWN HALF THE LENGTH, CLEANED AND SPRAYED BLACK. IT SHOULD SOUND LIKE
 "EVIL" IN A CAVE .....

SACKED OFF SO I WENT FOR A WALK

 YESTERDAY WENT SO WELL MAKING MY PIPES BUT TODAY I TRYED MAKING THE 2-1 COLLECTOR BOX , I WAS TRYING TO USE REALLY THIN STAINLESS STEEL; IT DROVE ME FUCKIN NUTS, I JUST KEPT BLOWING HOLES IN SHIT AND MAKING A BIG MESS.
SO I SPAT MY DUMMY AND WENT FOR A WALK.
JUST A SHORT DRIVE FROM MY GAFF IS THIS AMAZING PIECE OF OLD ENGINEERING.
ON DARTMOOR THERE ARE A FEW GRANNIT QUARIES. LEADING FROM THIES QUARIES TO THE TIEGN ESTUARY (ABOUT 11 MILES) ARE THIES GRANNIT TRAM LINES WHERE THEY USED O DRAG THE GRANNET TO GET LOADED ONTO BARGES, THEN BOATS TO BE SHIPPED ALL OVER THE UK.

JACK THE BASTARD PATROLLING HIS KINGDOM.

AFTER A WALK IN THE SUN WITH THE BUZZARDS DIVE-BOMBING EACH OTHER AND THE LARKS WARBBLEING AWAY , I FELT RELAXED AND A SOLUTION TO MY PROBLEM POPPED INTO MY TINY MIND. I DROVE BACK HOME AND ATTEMPTED TO WELD SOME DIFFERENT PIECES TOGETHER BUT FOUND OUT THAT WHILST I WAS OUT ALL MY ARGON HAD LEAKED FROM MY BOTTLE. BOLLOCKS. SO I CYCLED TO THE PUB

Norton Commando Transformer by Steve Twist THANKS MOIKE.

SPORTSTER PT6

 CARRIED ON MAKING THE EXHAUST TODAY. I FIND IT TOTALLY SATISFYING CUTTING AND WELDING EXHAUST SECTIONS.

 YOU CAN JUST SEE ' JACK THE BASTARD' LINGERING IN THE BACKGROUND, WAITING FOR A BIT OF ARC-EYE..

THIS IS THE FRONT SECTION TACKED AND LOOKING GOOD. BUT JUST TRYED FABRICATING THE 2-1 LINK AND GOT COMPLEETLY FRUSTRATED, SO ILL HAVE ANOTHER GO TOMOROW.

On Any Sunday (1971) IF YOU HAVENT SEEN THIS FILM ' YOU MUST ITS AN ABSOLUTE CLASSIC . MADE BY BRUCE BROWN (IF YOURE A SURFER YOU WILL KNOW HE MADE THE CLASSIC 'ENDLESS SUMMER'. THE FILM HAS GOT EVERYTHING FROM A YOUNG KID POPPING A MONSTER WHEELY TO HARD CORE FLAT-TRACK ACTION AND IT EVEN HAS STEEVE MCQUEEN BEING HIS USUAL COOL SELF R

BLOODY HIPPIES

I LIVE NEAR A TOWN CALLED TOTNES. IT IS A TOWN FULL OF 'TRUSTIFARIANS' (RICH HIPPIES) AND PEOPLE WHO WANT TO BE PIXIES. ITS WORSE THAN GLASTONBURY.
ON MY WAY TO WORK THIS MORNING I SAW THAT SOMEBODY HAD 'CORRECTED' THE SIGN.
I LAUGHED  SO MUCH THAT MY HEAD FELL OFF, THEN I CRASHED INTO A 10 FOOT FEIRY, DIRECTING TRAFFIC. I THEN WOKE UP IN ANOTHER DIMENSION, WHERE EVERYONE ELSE ON THE PLANET LOOKED LIKE 'LINDA LUSARDIE' AND THE RIVERS WERE FULL OF WHISKEY AND THAY HAD A LAKE OF STEW AND YOU COULD PADDLE AROUND ALL DAY IN A BIG CANNOE.

DIRT QUAKE

THIS LOOKS ACE .. RUN WOT YA BRUNG AROUND THE SPEEDWAY TRACK. I MIGHT THRASH MY SPORTSTER ROUND AND SHOW ALL THE NORTHERNERS HOW IT'S DONE (I LIVE IN THE SOUTH WEST SO EVERYWHERE IS UP NORTH). PLUS IT WILL BE NEARLY MY BIRTHDAY SO YOU CAN ALL BUY ME A PINT!!

THIS IS A  DRAWING OF THE NEW LAND SPEED RECOURD ATTEMPT. THEY HAVENT FINISHED BUILDING IT YET.
THEY THINK THAT IT MAY DO 1000 MPH.
I HOPE IT DOES; BECAUSE BEING FAST , ECCENTRIC NUTTERS IS WHAT US BRITS DO BEST .( THAT AND QUEING ).
IF YOU WANT TO BE PART OF IT YOU CAN PAY FOR YOUR SELF TO GO TO SOUTH AFRICA AND THEN PICK STONES OFF OF THE TRACK, FOR FREE. WAHOO.

I THINK I MIGHT SPEND MY MONEY ON GETTING MY BIKE BACK ON THE ROAD, INSTEAD.   THAT MAY TAKE AT LEAST A DAY LONGER THAN I PLANNED AS I WENT TO THE PUB TONIGHT INSTEAD OF BUILDING MY EXHAUST.

COOL CARS

 A BIT LIKE MY OLD MK2 CONSUL ( I WISH ).

 NOTHING LIKE IVE EVER OWNED.

!!!!

FOR EMMA

 MY SISTER HAS BEEN COMPLAINING THAT THERE ARE NO LOVELY BLOKES ON MY BLOG.

 OBVIOUSLY THE 'BUDGIE SMUGGELER' IS A HIT WITH THE LADIES..

SPORTSTER PROJECT

 IVE JUST MOVED INTO 'STEPFORD' . MY HOUSE AND GARAGE IS SUROUNDED BY SO MANY HOUSES THAT I HAVE TO BE REAL CAREFUL HOW MUCH NOISE I MAKE. (I FEAR THAT IF I USE MY ANGLE GRINDER THEIR WILL A MOB OF LOCALS WITH PITCH FORKS READY TO BURN ME). SO FIRST THING I DID THIS MORNING WAS TO DRY FIT THE FORKS

 THEN I GOT INTO MAKING MY STAINLESS EXHAUST. I USED A HACKSAW TO CUT THE SECTIONS (DUE TO QUITNESS) BY HAPPILY I THINK IT WAS MUCH EASIER TO CUT A STRAIT LINE WITH THE HACKSAW INSTEAD OF AN ANGLE GRINDER. ILL USE THE HACKSAW FROM NOW ON .

 I BOUGHT A SELECTION OF BENDS AND CUT AND TACKED THEM TOGETHER.
LOOKING COOL SO FAR I RECKON.
I NEED A SMALL PART BEFOR I CAN FABRICATE THE FRONT PIPE.

 SO I MADE A LIGHT AND NUMBERPLATE BRACKET USING THE LIGHT FROM MY OLD RAT FZ750.
 GOOD AFTERNOONS WORK, I FEEL CHUFFED SO NOW IM HAVIN A CELIBRATION PINT

WHO IS WHO?
