Well, I've been thinning out my stash of spare parts and I have a fender that is really too rough to be used. It has been brazed in several places and body filler over rust and holes, so I cut out the brazed areas and after beating on so many screwed up places, I've decided to make a wall art from it. I used to custom paint on motorcycles back in the 60', so I'm going to pave the remaining bad places on the fender to make it reasonably straight, paint it and maybe do some flames, lace, endless lines or cobwebbing and hang on the wall. Don't know if the video will play. If not I'll post a picture later.
I'll post a photo of the fender. Sorry about the way the video worked. Not sure what I did wrong with it. I do intend to put a motor on it to power the wheel and possibly some kind of back lighting.

What a cool idea.....now find an old blender motor or can opener motor and fab up the hardware to make it turn continuously ..

My thoughts exactly. Planning on mounting some kind of small rubber wheel on a motor and use it to drive the wheel on the inner side. Would like to find a motor that I can control speed.
I kinda like it in bare metal, as is. Does the wheel turn constantly with a motor, or just spin on a hub manually?
Presently just free wheeling. Will be looking to power it. I used a hub that I took off some kind of American Motors car when I was junk yard shopping back in the eighties.
