Just finishing this helmet for a buddy of mine in Florida

This was lots of tape, airbrushing and a stencial involved in painting this helmet.

Glamour Pics of the Completed '71 XLCH Chop

 

We shot these pics a couple weeks ago.  A local photographer that I know took the pics.  The blonde hottie is my wife and the brunette is a friend who my wife hooked up to model with the bike.

Kicker Pedal Brass Inserts

Made these out in the shop for my ironhead.  They came out pretty nice!

New paint that I'm laying down on my Evo chopper... this is the rear fender

This is my first time paintin g "Lowrider" or "Tape Fade" style... lots of fun but pretty time-consuming.

Rockin' Custom-Painted Sent to Las Vegas

Dude sent me a brand-new Loser Machine helmet with a killer idea for customizing it.  I treated it to some pinstriping, gold leaf and lettering then sent it back to Sin City.

Brass Exhaust Tip

I recently machined these cool little brass exhaust tips for my '71 Ironhead Sportster.  Not too bad to machine and I made an extra set using the additional brass that I ordered.  Made them using my late Dad's 1953 South Bend 10L lathe... lots of "soul" in those little parts.

Just decided to begin a blog for FlameThrowerCustoms... I know nothing about blogs but here goes anyhow....
