What welding projects are you working on? Are you proud of something you built?
How about posting some pics so other welders can get some ideas?

Beautiful! I'd love to hear them under hard acceleration. Can you tell me how you design the chamber dimensions? Is there a program for that?

One of the most popular programs is Two Stroke Wizard...

I have to comment here. You can spot a pro and an amateur very easy with "stroke" versus "cycle". There's no such thing as a "two-cycle" or "four cycle" motor.

Your options are "two-stroke cycle", and "four-stroke cycle". You're describing what happens in ONE cycle of the motor.

Sadly, manufacturers of lawn equipment are following the trend of crappy language, and calling their equipment "two-cycle" and "four-cycle".

And he's the guy that sits with his crew while they work on his bike and watches instead of bouncing around to every team, trying to get someone to like him. Has never worked.

Indeed. I noted that he said "two-stroke", not "two-cycle", throughout his comments.

Holy smokes!

Very, very nice work. Totally get how complicated this is. Routing through the frame and clearing bodywork ain't easy.

Do you still have patterns? I wouldn't mind having a go at some titanium ones for my 500. Something else to add to the list of projects!
