Hello, this is Rob from the UK. I’m really enjoying your channel, it’s encouraged me rekindle my passion for bikes. I’m fortunate to be retiring early and will be extending my garage at home to start a couple of projects, maybe restore a 1980s jap 2 stroke trail bike and also custom build something similar to your scrambler or flat tracker. Keep up the good work, your videos are inspirational, I’ve already started purchasing some of the workshop tools etc based on your recommendations.

Great job! I know how tricky it can be welding mesh: have you tried Tig Braze wire, commonly referred to as C9? I can wholly recommend as recently started using it myself. Very low amps required and 'sticks' just about everything of a dissimilar metal variety (aluminium excluded) where a non-critical 'strength' is required. I've just made a stainless mesh cover for my naked Goldwing with great results. Loved your GRP and foam seat construction too, btw. Will be following all your projects with great interest. Good man.
