Pretty soon(in the next year or so) I'm going to be building a bike from scratch. And I've been looking for cool themes to follow and I really like the idea of a steam punk cafe racer. The power plant is most likely going to be a cb350 twin. Steam punk themes are Victorian styled mechanical looking objects that look as though the run off steam. Alot of gears copper colors and Leather are used. I am going to learn to weld from a family member so I can actually make my own frame and other parts. Just let me know what ideas u have for the project. And let me know if u even think it's a good theme! I will make it anyways I just was wanting opinions. My projects are going to move a bit slow until I get a new job. I'm often too broke to afford to get my parts. Bills!!! Lol well I hope alot of u guys can make it to the vintage bike night coming next thursday because it is kind of our first event where we can meet

I guess this is a good spot for this question... I need to buy some steel, DOM tubing 1-3/8 od. Does anyone have a supplier they have used in Indy for steel purchases?
