It would be nice to have a shop like that instead of doing things with bear skins and stone knives like I do. And, how does he stay so clean?

Don't install your rear sprocket like he did! He put both rag joints on the inside of the spokes.
It should be starting with the sprocket .
sprocket
fiber washer
spokes
fiber washer
metal backing plates.

Installed the way he did will result in broken spokes.
I'm not a fan of rubber mounting the engine either.

Nice looking shop and nice tools.

Thanks guys! I had already joined the forum. Thanks for the invite.
Maybe in the summer I will be able to build another. I want to build a rear friction style using the smooth and reliable engine from my honda rototiller.

BTW... Norman is right about my mistakes, but it was all a learning process for me!

Hey welcome - everybody messes something up the first time. (even Norm :) )

What I like about your video (other than your nice shop and tools) is the fact that you take your time and do things like building a model. Not rushed or forced. Good lesson there!

welcome to the forum/ If you find you have a rather bumpy ride it's probably due to the knobby tires on your bike I would suggest you change the tires. You will enjoy the ride much more.

very well made video's.... the sprocket set up would worry me, but all else looks great and panofish has some nice tools and a great little shop, my dad and I have a little Smithy Lathe / Milling machine combo in the shop so we can done some minor machining but this guy got the good stuff, and really takes his time and keeps it nice and neat.... great job!

Nice video and I also welcome you to the forum. Yeah, you have a shop to die for. Another good little tip I learned here is to use an O ring where the carburetor fits onto the intake manifold to help make a sure seal. Some of the vendors carry them, but I got mine locally at the auto parts store. These are fun to ride, eh?
