My first build begins
« on: February 06, 2008, 04:44 PM »
Right picked up me frame and bit's from Dan today and over the moon, 10 times better than the images he sent me so i have stickered it up and ready to start assembly but i have to give a real big thanks again to Dan for the Paint and prep work and to Del for the decals which were far better than expected and far better than the original ones, you guy's done good, it brings a tear to my eye when i look at this, mainly because if the misses finds out how much ive been spending she will cut off me knackers. More to follow as bike gets built. :daumenhoch:

mate dan and dels work is quite simply the dogs  :daumenhoch: not only that but they are both really nice to deal with and helpful with novices like me!!
im loving that colour scheme and if this really is your first build then prepare to lose your knackers at some point in the near future, bmx is a bug and once caught you are fooked, my advise is simply this

do not at any point have a joint back account with the mrs, or you will be talking in a high pitched voice and walking like john wayne  :LolLolLolLol:

Del does a fantastic job too. Did my Pink ripper decals. Not sure if i said thanks but thanks Del! ;)

Great colour mate. Looks like you gonna do a nice bike there Dave. I realise why you need the tyres now!

Im still trying to flog it mate! ;)

No worrys mate ill get some at some point no panic, as for the decals i wacked em on in 2 minutes all excited like a child at christmas and they were excellent but i did get two sets from Del just incase i fooked em up. Glad people like it though can't wait to get it finished and start the next one.
