hey this is the plans i posted this in the customs forum but i didn't get any help so i figure this might be a better spot i will copy the message as is and u tell me what u think? i found plans at http://64.172.168.34/neatstuff/old_school_chopper_frame.htm.... i am goign to college to become a welding enginner so the welding skills are there just not the knowledge that ,most of you have from being around it. I am really curious to what you think of those plans if anyone could take the time and look them over. I am curious what I should bend i believe its called the wishbones at ? I am a good 6'6' and about 250 would this be a comfortable ride for me? I don't have much riding expierence but I think in my oppion when u make soemthing you definately apprecaite it alot more so thats what I plan on any comments good and bad all welcome I appreciate your help and sorry if this the wrong spot for this
