Big Steve Report post Posted May 10, 2010 I love the grim reaper and the "Deuce" seats! Nice work! Mokosh, thanks for looking, the reaper was even better before it was dyed black, the Deuce seat was fun to do, it took 2 days just to make the tools as they are the exact size of playing cards, after tooling i layed some steel mesh onto the cards to imprint a linnen effect as in expensive playing cards, it took ages to convince the customer that they were not real, sadley the bike was stolen and never recovered. Kind Regards, Steve Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
