    Lookit what I did...

    nothing like the sound of an anglegrinder cutting roofing iron on a sunday
    morn....

    this should keep the neighborhood toerags out.

    heh, looks like a headquarters doesn't it?, has anyone got a kiwibiker flag?

    angle grinder ?

    Next time you're cutting coro iron, try a circular saw with the blade flipped around. Works a treat, especially at twilight, awesome fireworks display.

    I've done that before, but it tears the tips off the tungsten blades, anyway the gate is steel so the anglegrinder was out anyway, change disks and your away.

    totally transformed the front yard too, all the kids are on the other side of the gate and can't reach the latch to get back in, lol, peace and quiet.

    nice... Err I think!

    Next time try a steel cutting blade on a skilly, sod all sparks, and cleaner cuts, and sparks don't pit the steel so no rust

    Looks good lb99, should get some nice reverberations off that surface, all you need now is a vee twin.....

    If your cutting galv of zincalum sheet material use shears not a grinding wheel. The grinding action leaves the parent metal exposed and promotes corrosion, using shears "smears" the galv or zincalum coating over the cut surface and helps protect it....just in case anyone wanted to know!

    Lol yeah, it's always interesting moving into a new neighbourhood... done that plenty of times. Interesting to see the first impressions and how they change as they get to know you. Right now they'll be thinking `shit... bikers... that brought the average valuation right down', hahaha.

    As for the head, well, I've got all the bits I need now (they arrived this morning, at last), so I just need some oil and diesel fuel and then I'll put it together and I'll find out if I need a new head or not. I think I can get away with it

    Blenheim doesnt really get Taggers. More like kids who sniff the can fumes or spraypaint their "phat" cars with sliced springs, loud exhausts and wapshh noises made by people in the passenger seat.

    EDIT: What street is that lb?
