OSMA 25 vs. GONK The 25 gallon OSMA cold water tank lines up great, though I had to take out the perspective on the photo for it to match up just right (and how much perspective to take out can be a bit of a guessing game so I could be fooling myself). If we could get a straight on photo of an...

Re: Gonk tub near London Oops sorry - I got excited! I've edited the post and omitted the link. The guy quoted me about $200 to ship it to the US so I'm out on that one! I'm going to photoshop pics of these tanks over screenshots to see how well they match up. It's possible that the tanks...

Gonk tub near London There's a 25 gallon tank for sale right now near London. (link omitted to abide by rpf rules) He gives some dimension info: Dimensions at biggest point: 55cm width +14cm pipes attached (could be removed) 74cm length 50cm height

Oh boy this is a revelation! So now I need to go to the U.K., find a neighborhood with small homes built in the 70s and start knocking on doors. "Excuse me but I fear you may be harboring half of the droid I'm looking for."

August Ebay Screen Used Bike [B]I got to snooping around that August ebay auction of the screen used Pee-Wee Bike. It looks like the person who won the auction recently bid on multiple items in the Pee-Wee Herman category. So at least it looks like the lucky winning bidder was: 1. A real...

Thanks for the pics Billy! Dang that's crazy. My guess is that the ebay bike didn't actually change hands for $1600. I bet the seller got so many frantic email offers that he sold the bike privately for much much more. But who knows. Headbadges! I haven't looked at those designs for a long...

Six years! Aaaagh! Is there anyone who could post all the pictures from the Aug. 14 ebay auction screen used bike? I was just now catching up on this thread, and the pics aren't available on the auction page any more...

SteveStarkiller your models are so great! I've dreamt of a real world Cantina Bar for a long time. The outside would be simple white stucco with a neon sign that says 'CANTINA'. The inside would be an exact replica of the Cantina Bar architecture and furniture. No extra gimmicks, no cheesy...

Please don't tear down an original paint bike! There are enough orphaned and repainted DX frames to go around.

I have a Batmobile! That's some high praise, Vox - thanks! For the past month or so I've been pushing hard on the front fenders to try and get them done in time for the Paramount Theater's special 25th Anniversary screening of Batman 1989. It seemed like a do-able landmark goal. And I...

Thanks Maul. Summer of 89 - Oops - yeah I'm that guy!

In one day: !

I think Matt is right - pushing hard on a project to get it done and over with is misery. Working on a project because you love the work is bliss.

Batman MCMLXXXIX poster! Happy 25th Anniversary to Batman 89! I designed this special new screen print movie poster for the ocassion, and I'm going to try and print it today from start to finish. I'll be updating on my tumblr as it comes along: Creebobby News

The first two skin plates on the fenders are done. They were very tricky to mount. The doors flare out further than the front fenders. I realized this a while ago and decided to forge ahead with the fenders as designed, and if it looked goofy then I'd address it with some kind of scoop /...
