16.01.2022 So, Ben here, not sure if you have been following but we have had alot of things happening in the wallis camp, moved into a bigger premisis, teamed up with Trent from Rocket Custom Designs and we had a new arrival into the family!!! in regards to the bike tho, i put 1 design on, was not really to happy with the final result, so we stripped it again and i have started from scratch, hopefully it will be completed in the coming fortnight, finally got the stencils cut, ive made plenty, may not use them tho!!!

06.01.2022 I have been keen on a Gulf inspired paint job for a long time and I toyed with it on a set of forks about 3 years ago but there were some problems..... 1. Rattle Cans = crap colour and poor paint quality 2. Pro skills = not best application or access to $1000s in tools and consumables that make for a top notch job 3. Couldnt get pin lines with low quality masking tapes... We can all learn skills but there is a serious amount of time to invest in tools and a hell of a lot of mistakes to muddle through if you want you job to look pro one day.
06.01.2022 Food for thought....... https://m.facebook.com/story.php?story_fbid=1495721250478204&substory_index=0&id=131641410219535
