o/ from NOT Seattle, WA, but close.

I've been around a few other Chinese bike forums but uhhh, they kind of lacked one really important thing... Users.

Mechanic, welder/fabricator, plumber... Yeah I went where the money is. Hint: It's not welding out here where I'm at, unfortunately.

Hoping to bring some interesting experience here to the forums!

Some of that welding I talk about. Adding custom AR400 armor on a JD 350G

Welds look good., My experience welding Navy and shipyards and commercial oil tankers required that you needed to grind clean the area out to 1 1/2" from weld joint to prevent contaminating the welds. Very anal. Very happy not to working for any of those a hole again.
