Paul Brodie's Excelsior

Mechanics all the way: Paul Brodie from Flashback Fabrications is showing his step by step build of the Excelsior boardtracker. History of this bike can be found on the web. Nice insight on how this bike came to life for those who love mechanics here

Cyclone boardtracker copy

I really like boardtrackers, the original bikes and the style. This guy build a replica based on a lawnmower engine. You can check out his cool blog here.

DIODER



Last weekend went to Ikea, and bought the DIODER led lights. Supposed to place them somewhere in your kitchen i guess...
Always tought they would look nice on my mill. And they do!

Manual press


Sometimes when reading articles on how to make stuff, it says "check your local scrapyard"...
I never checked my scrapyard...!
Tought,"maybe I should", and so I did.
Look what i found on my first scrapyard search :))
A manual press waiting to be converted into a small english wheel or power hammer.
Nice!
