Deliberate anti-social activity including personal insults, profanity, pornography, racism, threats and purposely inflammatory posts may result in suspension of forum access or possibly a permanent ban from GSR.

    Welcome!
    Register to access the full functionality of the GSResources forum. Until you register and activate your account you will not have full forum access, nor will you be able to post or reply to messages.

    A note to new registrants...
    All new forum registrations must be activated via email before you have full access to the forum.

    A Special Note about Email accounts!
    DO NOT SIGN UP USING hotmail, outlook, gmx, sbcglobal, att, bellsouth or email.com. They delete our forum signup emails.

    A note to old forum members...
    I receive numerous requests from people who can no longer log in because their accounts were deleted. As mentioned in the forum FAQ, user accounts are deleted if you haven't logged in for the past 6 months. If you can't log in, then create a new forum account. If you don't get an error message, then check your email account for an activation message. If you get a message stating that the email address is already in use, then your account still exists so follow the instructions in the forum FAQ for resetting your password.

    Have you forgotten your password or have a new email address? Then read the forum FAQ for details on how to reset it.

    Any email requests for "can't log in anymore" problems or "lost my password" problems will be deleted. Read the forum FAQ and follow the instructions there - that's what we have one for...

  • Returning Visitors

    If you are a returning visitor who never received your confirmation email, then odds are your email provider is blockinig emails from our server. The only thing that can be done to get around this is you will have to try creating another forum account using an email address from another domain.

    If you are a returning visitor to the forum and can't log in using your old forum name and password but used to be able to then chances are your account is deleted. Purges of the databases are done regularly. You will have to create a new forum account and you should be all set.

Pic of the week game

Sounds good, Roger.
Thanks for getting us something.
Now you can go to work (while customers will still let you into their house).

That customer actually cancelled the job yesterday. I wound up enjoying the nice weather doing yard work for an elderly neighbor and monkeying with the GS for an hour or two. Not sure which one hurt my back, but I'll be taking it easy today for sure.

Custom Metal Work.
Not just any metal thing,..... Custom, Custom Metal Work.
Okay.

Remember, custom doesn't necessarily mean the weirdest thing you've ever seen. Could simply be made to a customer's specifications.
 
The "GixxerKart". Home made golf cart with GSXR750 motor. Built by actual professional welders, this thing boogies. (i did the wiring)

Here is a different look at my current project. Excalibur inspired for a fellow in New England. The tatanti kabuto is a collapsing helmet for a foot soldier.

Custom metal work
So I'm going to go with this, at least for the moment.
I picked up a wheel on ebay, $40 total, even with shipping. Harvested the hub.
Then I hanged the wheel from the ceiling and strapped some halogen lights to it.
Voila! Custom metal work.

Was thinking I could get out for a ride this week to find a better pose of this.

Learned about this in a local park late yesterday so I checked it out after work this evening.

We are also under a stay at home order but with the note that they aren't going to stop anyone on the road so we can still travel as necessary.
 
Friday Morning and Time to Vote!
First the theme from Roger (Burque73):

Custom metal work.











And that is it....10 entries. Don't forget to vote.
As always...If I missed anyone, please let us know.

Editorial Comment:
The past two weeks our entries have dropped off a bit, surely due to current world events.
But let's do our best to keep this game going, a little piece of normal right now feels good.
So spread the word among the GSR faithful....

Agreed.
That would be easier if the theme-subject would be such that we would be likely to already have something.

(Ha! Says I, who's theme-subject got the least number of entries.)
 
My Short list: Burque, Gustov, dpep and maybe mine.

Mine I though could have been posed better.
Gustov interesting when know he made those himself.

I kept comming back to dpep, lots to entertain eyes there. Looks like got bike right in there.

Vote for Mr Don dpep.
