Powder Keg:
I'm working on a turn signal to go along with the brake light that I need to finish. Here are a couple of shots of what I have now. It's all Brass.





I made some pretty things for the sidecar wheel also out of brass.





I still have quite a bit to do. I'm building a windshield. There will be an onboard air compressor. that way I can fill a tire or adjust the shocks. Oh yeah, There's the air horns that are about ready to install :clap: I bought them a while ago at a yard sale. They were in pretty sad shape. I took the trumpets off and polished them up. they turned out pretty nice, so, I decided to take the horn apart and powdercoat it to match the bike. I drilled out the rivets and stripped the old paint off.





I'll get a picture of them all spiffy here soon.

Powder Keg:
Some parts showed up today :ddb: :ddb: :ddb:



I need to make a mount for my air bottle, Then I can start figuring out where everything will live. I snagged some Stainless to make an enclose out of. I'll get to weld Stainless :D

Bernd:
I like that side car. Something "airy" about it.  :lol:

Powder Keg:
It's amazing how busy a fellow can get.....

I started mounting some of the stuff. I had a stainless steel refrigerator door that donated some of itself to make a shelf for my air compressor. I just cut out what I needed and drilled the mounting holes. I then TIG welded up a bracket and drilled the holes in it. It holds my air tank\o/



I have some HID lights to help me see where I'm going and a 7 prong trailer plug to wire the bike to the car.


More soon.....
