I bought a rolling chasis and I need some help with how to move forward on
this project. Is there a dummy's guide to bike building or any sites that
can get me going. Greg

Just watch a few episodes of American Chopper or Biker Build Off and
you're ready to go at it!

It''ll probably look like a bedliner by the time I get done with it.

Didn't you post that you had a spray gun now ? I seem to recall you were
wondering about the spray tip size ?

Sounds like you have a Rolls C'Nardley.
Rolls down one hill, and c'nardley make it up the next.

Yeah, I've got a gun with a 1.3 tip. The primer says to use
a 1.5-1.8 tip. I was wondering if I could get by with the 1.3
and my primer. After talking to a few folks and reading the
directions again I think I'll be OK, primer can be diluted 10%
if necessary. I mean, it ain't like I'm gonna be painting flames
or anything. <sfsf>
