    Hello all.

    I'm from Dubuque,IA. I am a mechanical designer (Cadd drafter) for a day job.

    I am building a 1974 Honda CB360 Hardtail Bobber. Hope to have it done this spring. I enjoy all hot rods from "rat" rods to shiney trailer queens, to everything in between.


    I have recently picked up pinstriping. I have been doing it for about a month. Enjoying it everytime, and getting a little better everythin

    I would have guessed your images looked like Solidworks. I used ACAD full time about 15 years ago but since then I have run Pro-E/Creo. A coupld people here run Solidworks and love it.

    Do you have your whole bike modeled?

    I used Pro-E in college, but haven't used it since. I have been using different cad programs from the last 13 years. Those were rendered in the Solidworks Photoview 360.

    I do not have the whole bike modeled, just the 2d side view. I have modeled various components that I am making for the bike.

    My name is Tim Buchholtz. I do not personally know Garrett, but i know a few people who know him. My co worker who is doing my welding is Andrew Courtney, not sure if you know him..

    Thank you, I am trying to get better every time. Here is where my bike stands currently. I need a few things done yet, and then it is off for powder coat. Hopefully going to have it done by Torquefest. I got bored and striped my tank. Even though i'm going to have it powdercoated.
