Blaine from York PA
 

I was invited here by a member. We share similar interests in vintage car restoration and metal fabrication and he thought i would enjoy the site. My current project is creating a detailed CAD drawing of Simplex Servi-cycle motorbike, with the intention of making a 1/4 scale model of it.

I’ve got decades of experience with my mig welder and bandsaws fabricating a variety of things, but this project will require skills and methods on a much smaller scale. I also have set up a small foundry for casting small aluminum parts, and i tinker with 3D printing, so it will most likely be a combination of fabrication methods. Being that the Servi-cycle frame is constructed basically from 2 continuous loops of DOM tubing, i’ve dubbed the project as “Project Pipe Dream”.

Looking forward to learning better ways of doing things right the first time.


Thanks, Blaine.

Hi Blaine

Welcome to Allmetalshaping!

I put Blaine in as your signature, but that can be changed if want something else.

Thanks Steve. Attached a photo of a Servi-cycle and 2 renderings of my drawings so far. Need fenders, seat, motor and drivetrain yet, so a bit of work to do.
