    Thanks for clearing that process up. I know you know what you are doing but some of us try and speculate and we usually get it totally wrong. You built a frame for a 41 knuckle with side car I needed a few years ago but when we talked you recommended doing the thicker pan head tubing and I'm glad we did it that way. Just wish you were still at it but understand why you aren't. Think I might give Clack a try as I see some others have with good results as I have another 41 frame that is a mess and basically needs to be disassembled and the above process on the casting/forgings and new tubing installed. Again thanks for your input and guidance and craftsmanship and hope it catches on.

    Hi Tom.
    Some of my thoughts and recollections during my time with Ross River virus and then Fibromyalgia are foggy and in some cases non existent .
    But I do remember your thicker wall frame. Glad I had enough brain power to recommend that idea.

      Well you and Lady Ga Ga have something in common with the fibromyalgia! My sister and family lived in Aussie for 4 year in Alice but they managed to avoid any major diseases or critter bites. Only the occasional flood of the Campbell River and washing a few drunks down stream. She loved it there and wants to move back. She did have one kids Named Conor MacDonald after the mountain range.

        Hi Rollo.
        Alice is a nice town to visit but I wouldn't live there.
        I have heard of lady gaga and know that shes a singer, but didn't know anything else so I had a look on Google.
        Well!!! She's and individual little poppet.
        I feel for her if she is trying to do that job and cope with Fibro.

        Initially I contracted Ross River virus from a mozzie, and apparently it morphed into Fibromyalgia.
        The confounded thing stuck around for 13 years until I kicked it out of bed this year.
        I completed stem cell treatment on my knee earlier this year and the surgeon used me as one of the guinea pigs for treating Fibro with regenerative stems at the same time. It worked so well, I feel down right frisky.

          More importantly..what are you still doing awake?
          how about a heck of a good machinist then.
          boy, being up is what I ask myself lol
          I am off work waiting on surgery and am used to starting my shift at midnight. it doesn't matter what time I turn the light off i'm back awake by 1am.
