3D pen - Making a motorcycle
So this guy makes stuff by 'printing' with a 3D pen, which until yesterday I didn't know existed.

I have tp admire him. I think I would have bought a kit myself that's too much for me to make.

Astonishing, I don't know what amazes me the most, the attention to detail (the patina, the pushrod tubes, kill switch, cutting his own tyre treads like Burt Monroe) or how on earth he manages to use so many blades, drills & grinders with manicured hands, why don't his fingers look like a butchers window?

Apologies - it was Geoff Duke who used to cut his own tyre treads, Burt Munro cut all the treads off & polished the the tyres with boot polish to make them look like slicks - both men absolute legends.
