You'll make a much prettier one for yourself lol and you know you willYou almost didn't twice! First time was when the wood I original chose got to thin to continue. 2nd Time was after I took it out of it's bath and came so close to keeping it.
All the mechanical buttons are silver bezel with brass button I picked them up at Fat Daddy Vapes to try out. Push very easily and should holdup they have magnets in the switch. The others can be different colors for the switch. @jmoney426
I think the brass goes very well on wood mods. Would I be able to order a parallel mech like #12, but with the same finish as Hank's? I understand that the grain would be different.

Whoops, I seemed to have missed that. That's quite alright. Maybe I should just consider purchasing #12 anyway.

It's my fault. It's ALWAYS my faultWhoops, I seemed to have missed that. That's quite alright. Maybe I should just consider purchasing #12 anyway.

You got that right. It's completely your fault that I wandered into this thread and spent money last night. And when my new mod arrives, that's the story I'm telling my wife.
It definitely is, but my bank account at the moment says no. At least until Thursday...#12 is calling for you.
And I agree It always is Hanks fault.
Here's hoping it's still available then!

Very happy to see it arrive and intact. For everyone's info that one was my first international shipping and it seems to have gone on quite an adventure. At one time seeming to go in a circle between our 2 countries. But it seems to have all worked out.
Appreciate you getting back to me. If that one is to your liking and the only thing holding you back is waiting 2 days until payday. Then please add a comment that you will be purchasing it on Thursday. And I will gladly put it on hold for you those 2 days. If that is agreeable to you?
@Sonar505, that would be amazing! Agreeable indeed. I will absolutely send payment on Thursday.
EDIT: Anyone have a brass Goon clone I can trade or buy?? Haha!

I have never had the pleasure of riding something like that so I will take your word for it. Heck I haven't ridden anything since I was young,dum and full of "myself" Ten feet tall and bullet proof . Now that i am older and frailer (Is that a word?) I prefer lots of steel surrounding me.
Hot damn I always wanted to ride in a side car but no one I knew had one. The closest I came was in the Philippines. Riding a Jeepney Trike from bar to bar but i don't wish one of those rides on anyone.
I welded up a hard tail oif triumph frame for a bobber, using r6 forks, wheels and brakes. With an sv650 motor/trans. Never even rode it before I sold it. Frame was powdered gold and everything else was audi pearl midnight black.

I have a '68 Triumph Bonneville with a hard tail & Durfee Girder out in the garage. I haven't tried to start it in years, but you guys are tempting me to get greasy again.
My mountain bike seat has a carbon fiber shell, with very sparse padding. It's also a hardtail. I put a lot of mileage on that slutHardtails
Glad it arrived. Amazes me how different the mods I make look when someone else takes a picture of it. Not sure if it is the lighting or the fact that I only have a camera phone available to me? But love seeing the difference. Thanks for posting and enjoy it.
Very nice! I love the color on that one.Loving mine. What I wanted in a wood squonker at a great price. Let's get the rest of these sold!!!!

Enjoy.
Absolutely love my mod. It's smaller than I thought, the fit and finish are outstanding, it's super light, yet durable. Love the mechanical switch! The throw is short and super smooth. Hard hitter! I would definitely buy another one given the opportunity!
