I reckon I am mere moments (more likely months) away from making my own two stroke pipes. Welding is getting much better. I can make tubes out of 18 and 20 gauge formed over a bar of inch stock in the vice and pie cut and weld them into odd shapes at will. Not made any cones yet but same principle. Getting much better at adding .030 mig wire as filler too so fit is a bit less sensitive now.
Bought a 80buck cheapie belt and disc sander which helps with the fit no end and today….drum roll….a fancy horizontal band saw for a hundo off Craigslist.
I drove all the way to Whittier, checked it switched on and brought it home. Where it promptly cut some unexpectedly fancy curves in my 1.5 tube stock. Looks like the blade is kinked, so need to order another. Boo.
Progress though.
