Haley and Kylie:
Glad to see you sharing time with your Dad and working on bikes. I like your design ideas: make it special and one of a kind. Keep up the good work, and upload pics!

The girls need some gloves if they are going to be grinding, especially when the guard has been removed from the grinder!

Don, thanks for the concern  however its easier for little hands to grip the grinder with out gloves.  She has lots of experience with grinders and has even mastered the mig welder in the flat position.  My girls are looking for some input on their build and are open for new ideas, feel free to share.

That will cause cavities    im looking out for their dental health

Haley and Kylie,your tank is on the way.I sent it out today.Daddy-o,i am pretty sure that the petcock is not functioning.It didn't leak,but it doesn't turn off either.But at least it does give you a place to hook up a gas line.I'll email you the tracking number.


Oh yeah,Kylie...there was a typo on the shipping label.I apologize for spelling your name "Kyle".Oops.Sorry
