Delivering Handlebars to UPS then USPS for shipping because their websites are shit for giving accurate shipping quotes. Anyways, nice day for a ride on the little CT-90.


had to get some bars shipped out today, so i took out the little 66 Honda CT-90.  great around town ride.  went to UPS to get the bars shipped, but shipping was insane, so they boxed up the bars, i slapped them on the rear rack with the bungee chords and hauled ass over to USPS.  box was bigger than the CT-90 almost.    should have got a pic of that.  next time.  bars are on their way.

Cow Rib Bone Bone Implements


incise the bone around its circumference.  once the incision is deep enough, it can be broken cleanly.




incise a groove on once side of the bone.  once this groove is deep enough, use a stone wedge and a hammer stone to split the rib bone by force.




start grinding away on the smallest piece, and after MUCH time, i was able to produce a VERY pointy bone needle.  the point is pointy enough to poke through my thick leather welding gloves, stab me, and draw blood.  yeah, the needle works. 



Honda Hobbit II Moped


Honda Hobbit II Moped my Dad and I restored and sold last summer.  Love getting phone calls out of the blue where people offer you motorized vehicles for free.  Parts help came from Myron's Mopeds.  She was fun, and I kind of wish I still had her...
