Won't all fit in one...here's some more... the last one is the seat and fender bib I did for myself (finally) on the bike. Let me know what ya'll think. Gary

It's been far too long since I've been on this site...time to show off a little of what I've been up too

The party was a blast, the vendors were great, and the bikes were even better than last year! Yup, I'll be at the fair, not as a vendor though...I can't afford the vendor fees, but you can bet I'm going to try the chocolate covered bacon! Thanks for the compliment!

How to get my holes to line up correctly.
HarleyChef replied to Hellbentforleather's topic in Motorcycles and Biker Gear
Copied and pasted from one of my other posts... Once I glue the foam to the pan, I make a pattern for the top piece, including hole spacing. If I'm going to use 1/4" lace, then I space the holes 1/4" apart and about the same from the edge. I then cut out a pattern for the bottom of the seat, tack the two patterns together while still on the seat. Mark your holes for the bottom piece from the holes for the top piece...it takes time but this works best for me. -

Thanks! The background is chocolate brown faded into medium brown, then saddle tan. I finished with a medium brown antique paste and two coats of Pecards leather dressing.

Y'all have been a huge help. I finally decided on the Pasche VLS, got a killer deal for the brush and a compressor. Thanks again for all your feedback! Cheers! Gary -

Thanks. Yeah, it's basically just a day bag for the one side. I have tools, extra pair of shades, and an extra pair of gloves in mine.
