Joined: November 2002 Posts: 3611 Location: Pacific Northwest Inland Empire | Thanks! Actually, I'm in the middle of constructing a recumbent, "tadpole"-design tricycle. Taking a bit of a hiatus from musical pursuits, in favor of cardiovascular fitness. "Age & Gravity".....generally sucks. It's keeping with the spirit of BFLG, though. Cutting up old bicycles & reassembling the parts. Certainly challenges the right hemisphere. | ||

Joined: November 2002 Posts: 3611 Location: Pacific Northwest Inland Empire | I've decided to sell this creation. I added some straplocks on it. I'm open to offers, but I've got probably $65.00 into it, by now. Anybody interested? | ||

Joined: December 2003 Posts: 13987 Location: Upper Left USA | I like that one! You should put it on Ebay with a BIN of $325 or Make Offer and see what happens. | ||

Joined: November 2002 Posts: 3611 Location: Pacific Northwest Inland Empire | Right you are, there Mike. Got nuttin'-to-lose. Maybe (and probably) PT Barnum was right. Stay tuned. We shall see what "the edge-of-the-envelope" looks like. | ||

Joined: November 2002 Posts: 3611 Location: Pacific Northwest Inland Empire | I'm getting some chuckles from this. Fat Boy, in the red suit, may be amused, too! Check it out: http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=161182271163&ssP... Mike, you may get a commission on this one. Merry Christmas to all, and to all, a good night! | ||

Joined: November 2002 Posts: 3611 Location: Pacific Northwest Inland Empire | So, OK. 1st round was a flop. No nibbles, offers, or even castigations. So, whack 1/2 off the BIN, and run it back up the flagpole. We shall see. | ||

Joined: November 2002 Posts: 3611 Location: Pacific Northwest Inland Empire | Well, it's sold. Hope the new owner appreciates it. It IS 1-of-a-kind, and not likely to be replicated. Hey Rocky, watch me pull a rabbit outta my hat! | ||

Joined: November 2002 Posts: 3611 Location: Pacific Northwest Inland Empire | Very nice! As to next fiasco, I am looking around for materials. The last Ovation parts package on FleaBay was $300.00! Probably, not gonna happen. I have a tin box calling from the corner, though. A preamp I constructed, and plenty of the "small parts". Guess I need to find a neck. Maybe, a tenor guitar, or baritone uke. We'll see.... | ||
