    Does anyone have a dremel I could use/borrow for a few?

    I'm located near the Flatiron Mall.

    Broomfield, Westminster, Thornton, Louisville, Lafayette and Boulder are all reasonably close enough for me to swing by if someone wouldn't mind letting me spend 10-15 minutes with your dremel!

    I'll be trying to widen some holes in a thin piece of 18ga steel to create a budget Fender Eliminator.

    Can anyone help me out?

    Thanks!

    I've got one as well and I'm next to the mall. You could stop by tomorrow evening or sometime Saturday.

    Awesome, thanks!

    Any chance either of you are free in the next hour?

    Mega short notice, I know!

    Here is the progress so far.





    Still have to drill some license plate mounting holes. Then I need to dremel three larger holes, one for the wires to come through the undertail, and one on each side for the turn signals to attach to.

    Hopefully this will turn out well,

    All finished!

    I did a quick photoshoot of my bike yesterday, so once I download the pictures from the DSLR to the HD, i'll upload some pics of the finished product!

    PS, for reference, here is the stock whale-tail that Yamaha includes OEM.

    (Not my image).


    I'll try to have those pictures up by tonight.
