How #1 points cover

[selectedgrub]

Some of you may have seen this.
I have plastered it over on some other forums.

Lump of flat 3/8" plate.



Chomp it to a disc, chuck it in the press.
Just used a big socket and a piece of tube.



Weld rod onto so I can lathe it.



Take some meat out rebate so the polycarbonate can fit.
I use polycarbonate plastic cause it's got a higher melt point than acrylic.

Remove rod, drill holes.



Drill more holes to remove guts to make porthole design





File it down to size

Chuck in some rivets cause it's my style



Get some paua shell (Abalone) grind little pieces off.

The irdescent effects of paua shell are *#@** cool.
Cause it's going on a green bike I thought the green rainbow colors that catch the sun will compliment the bike.

Resin in to the rivet holes



It's hard to get the picture to show the effects of the shell but it catches the sun sweet.

Chuck the plastic in it, call it done.
