ryan and i made some not-very-impressive-but-highly-effective dropouts for the kawi this evening.
we also bent some metal and drilled some holes in some things, the rear end should be on the bike sometime this year.
ryan and i totally jumped into this project never have done anything like it, it's been a learning experience all the way. having never done most of the work that we're doing before, we've been kinda hesitant here and there to jump right in and start cutting and welding.. ryan found this little philosophy over on the mulligan machine blog (my new favorite blog, btws) and it totally made me feel a lot better about everything ever.
1. There are three states of being. Not knowing, action and completion.
2. Accept that everything is a draft. It helps to get it done.
3. There is no editing stage.
4. Pretending you know what you’re doing is almost the same as knowing what you are doing, so just accept that you know what you’re doing even if you don’t and do it.
5. Banish procrastination. If you wait more than a week to get an idea done, abandon it.
6. The point of being done is not to finish but to get other things done.
7. Once you’re done you can throw it away.
8. Laugh at perfection. It’s boring and keeps you from being done.
9. People without dirty hands are wrong. Doing something makes you right.
10. Failure counts as done. So do mistakes.
11. Destruction is a variant of done.
12. If you have an idea and publish it on the internet, that counts as a ghost of done.
13. Done is the engine of more.
so yeah, no more lallygagging, time to wrap this shit up!
