The goal was to create a seat to compliment the bike that AMEN had just built Or was building. Monday night I got contacted Monday at 1:40 pm. By Mike to see this could be done. The seat had to be done and back to AMEN in TN by midnight Thursday. I started on the art work at 5:00 pm At 7:50 pm I got the dimensions of the seat pan and started tooling, Tuesday morning 13 hrs latter the tooling was done and the oiling process was started. 2hrs sleep and started again with the oiling process then the dyeing and painting process. - At 10:am the pan arrived. - At 7:pm Top Dawg picked up the pan. To get her foamed and shaped. Wednesday morning 17 hrs latter the dyeing. painting & airbrushing was finished At 1:am. - 6:am final detail then the clear coating. 10:30 am, time to get the leather on the seat. We tweaked the foam a little then Top Dawg stitched her up. It was on a plane at 4:00 pm Wednesday afternoon.
