I'll keep that in mind but I don't think that was my bike. . .  I had a 2000 900ie that I powdercoated the wheels and frame black. . .

I coulda sworn that bike came from you...with the radial masters and corsa themed accesory tank and other choice bits on it...

Not doing any milling at first (in the traditional sense)  Im buying a lathe that also has some milling capabilities.

I could probably still do the lunchbox on it though.

Note to self.

better idea even...to make it the new version of the old "DMF Toasty" and members take pictures with it in various places and then print them and put them in it and send it on to the next member?

You'll just be waking up to a different kind of alarm clock.  The one that says "get up, you gotta make some money and pay people back."  Good luck to you and to everyone else that has the cajones to venture out on their own.  [clap] [thumbsup] Now go make something already.

Ciao!

The roaming lunch box?

I could do a cf handle.

Good luck ML on the business venture!! [thumbsup] I hope it seriously takes off through the roof! Times are tough right now but with the right, cost effective, efficient battle plan and avoiding over extending yourself and your finances it might actually be a great time to start something like this. Especially since you have so many business contacts already. Again, best of luck to you! I have no talent or skills but I'm sure this group of hooligans would be happy to help you any way they can.

Prove that nay saying, battle axe mother in law she's wrong!!! >:( [cheeky]

The fact that flame throwers exist is proof that someone somewhere said "I'd sure like to set those people over there on fire but I'm just not close enough to get the job done."

CONFIDENCE: the feeling you have right before you understand the situation.

Thanks Brian.

I know deep down she wants it to work. She's just nervous because this is waaaay outside her comfort zone and I have her daughter along for the ride ;)

Tell her I said it will be OK. [laugh] And sorry about the battle axe comment. [cheeky] No shit bro' good luck with this. Sounds like you've thought it out. What the hell, give it a go! [thumbsup] I'll wear my lucky zombie shirt just to make sure.
