Bonneville General Chat / 2023 member patch

In all of the kerfuffle last year I never did get to the registration trailer to get my stuff.  I still don't have the sew-on patch and need it so my jacket doesn't look lopsided. 

Anybody got one?  I'll reward you handsomely!!  Tnx.

Nice job on the casting...One of your many talents?

Indeed.   Usually pour "found-alloy":  random aluminum I found under my bench.  For this one I wanted some reasonable properties.  Found Audi marks their rims with the alloy.  This should be approximately Al Si7 or A356 here in the US.

The view from the camera has been looking promising. Fingers crossed that it stays dry this year.

With the plate made it was time for a beefier cover.  Melted down a bent Audi wheel and came up with this.  There's a provision for additional stiffening rods that go from the cover to out by the axle.  Totally stealing that idea from "Perfect Launch" and a few other companies.
