* HOW TO * under fifty bux *
Running out of things to do to the bike. Here's the very next cheapest:
Wire covers by Pep Boys, $7.50
1928 Buffalo Nickel by Unca Sammy, $.35
Took a lot of grinding then filing to get it down to a .076" circle,
the inside of the choke lip.

Thanks for the positive feedback guys. I really appreciate it.
What started as a little help and assistance to mud, ended up in an image preview index projet.....
Completed the index and added preview image links.

Aluminum Tape Detailing
Aluminum tape can add a nice subtle touch anywhere. I used aluminum ducting tape from a roll that I had left over, that I originally got from Home Depot. I cut a couple of strips using a razor and a straight edge ruler, and put them on the tank seems of the Harley Davidson 10 row oil cooler. Once on, you can rub them with a cloth rag to conform to the shape of what ever you put them onto.
The aluminum ducting tape has the manufactures print on it that comes off easily with WD-40, you can also polish it.

Use your original cover to trace the perimeter onto a piece of quarter inch acrylic.
Use your mitre saw to cut in close to your line..........
.
.
.
.
Next move is to the sander. Make it round.
I have an old mouse pad on the table so I don't scratch the acrylic.
I will also put a small chamfer on the outside edge.........
.
.
.
.
Using the old cover, the bolt holes are marked,
Then bored and countersunk...........
.
.
.
.
Now screw the little b00ga in place and take her for a ride.
