"A very receptive state of mind... Not unlike a sheet of film itself-
seemingly inert, yet so sensitive that a fraction of a second's
exposure conceives a life in it."
-Minor White

fetherston: My three year project/deathtrap is finally starting to take shape. I’m hoping to have it running shortly. I still need to work out a few things but after a complete frame-up rebuild, this 37 year-old lump is finally ready to breathe a healthy dose of 32:1 premix. The carbs are sycned, the points are gapped to .04mm and the timing set to 1.8mm BTDC. I’ve checked and rechecked everything, but I’ll still be certain to have a fire extengisher close at hand when I jump on that kicker. Bravo.  I wish I had the technical know-how to attempt a project such as that.  Someday, maybe.
