Me too - if I built a bike in the house - it would be the LAST bike I ever built. Bad enough when she gripes about fuel smell in the garage......

OTOH please keep the kitchen bike photos coming. One guy had quite the long chopper going. I love it!!

My wife loves the bikes, she also loves riding hers. But, as far as ever bringing one in the house, that isn't ever going to happen!
I have a 40 year old Montgomery Wards Mini Bike that I restored to new condition for the Grand kids to ride someday. When I took it to the basement to store away, you should have seen "The Look"
I got.

I would put a flat bed on that and tow a trailer and go camping!

Now I wish I had pictures of my first build. I built it in my wife's living room last winter and although she didn't mind, I bet I'd be hard pressed to do it again. She likes to have her house filled with a lot of clutter so I had to clean out a small section of that room just so I could build it. It was interesting alright, but I'm not sure I'd want to do it again though!

I built my second one at my own house and that is where I will build all the rest.................plenty of space with plenty of tools!

I have cleaned car parts in the dish washer and I have ran plastic clutch covers through the washing machine. I can keep my man card.
