I know there are talented people in the club, so show off things you have built!

I made this out of scrap stuff I had laying around

I converted a standard filter housing to a compressed gas/water contactor and if think that is boring just wait for the picture

I changed the oil, and cleaned the chain on my DR650 in my shop of the great outdoors. That is as close as I get to building something. Smile
Waiting to see what real talented people build.

I sometimes make model steam engines. Mostly that's a winter thing, because riding and maintaining bikes occupies spring, summer and fall.

But here is my first model engine, being run on compressed air as a demo. I am not an experienced machinist, it's something I have been getting into over the last year or two, but I'm getting better at it. The next engine will be a little more intricate.

Got the Hayabusa rear shock to fit into my FJR. Some slight modification and plastic cut away but way better than the stock shock. More adjustable.
