Chopper Frame Blueprints Pdf Files
The CBH Frame Welding Jig Plans Over the years we've posted several different frame welding jig plans but the set that follows is what we're currently using so I thought I'd pass it along. Like most stuff here we want to make this a free download but that doesn't mean that these plans are public domain as many people would like to think. These are copyrighted design drawings and you can download and use copies for your personal use but don't let me catch you spreading these plans all over the Internet. Give friends the link and let them download their own copies. If I see these on eBay or at some discussion board somebody will be in deep shit. There is not a whole lot of text that goes with the plans so I urge those who download them to read everything they can find here on the main site and at the discussion board and at other boards before starting to build a jig.
The easiest frame to build is a traditional old school styled chopper since there aren’t any complicated bends or compound miters to cut so we decided to show the chassis fabrication process from A to Z as we do it.

I've said it before and I'll say it here again that a welding jig is just a tool used by a fabricator and that tool needs to be customized for the specific user. What you'll get here is just the most basic 'starter' type of information and you'll have to take our information and build on it over time to come up with something that suites your unique and particular situation. The plans are broken down into six 30'x42' sheets in Adobe pdf format. You can have these printed in almost any 'office supply' type of operation such as Kinko's, Office Depot, Staples and even some Fed-Ex shops.
Some people don't like the large format that we use but I personally can't see any reason to draw plans of any type that are restricted by a little 'letter-size' printer format. You can still print these large scale drawings on a regular printer using the 'tile' option that most printers support if push comes to shove. The direct links to the individual Adobe plot files are here: There are all kinds of people out there trying to sell Frame jig plans and with few exceptions most of these plans are worthless so be careful of what you decide to use for your projects. Also be very careful of folks trying to 'sell' plans that they claim are CBH plans since we don't sell jig plans to begin with.
The real nitty-gritty CBH jig plans have always been free to download here on the site. If you visit other sites for plans you can trust Steve Spence (Mechwerks) and Joe McGlynn (Crime Scene Choppers) with respect to the plans they provide but other than those shops we don't know of anybody who provides good accurate information so let a word to the wise be sufficient.

Welcome To The Chopper Builders Handbook Online The primary objective of the Chopper Builders handbook is to provide basic information that will enable everyone to successfully build their own Chopper from scratch. Update April 27, 2017 On the Road Again I've got Canned Heat playing in the background right now. Autocad 2017 torrent. It's good mood music for the upcoming move back to my old stomping grounds in Nevada.
With the passing of my Mom there really isn't much keeping me here in Texas. I love this state. It's one of the last strongholds for independent thinking people but its time to move on to another place. Unfortunately my old home base in Las Vegas has been taken over by the liberal robots so this time I'm heading up north hoping to find a stronghold of free thinking folks where I can put down some new roots. Update August 5, 2016 We moved into the new shop up in Nevada Texas on April 5th and figured that we'd be up and running in less than a month but here we are four months down the road and only about 50% ready to get working again. Update June 1, 2015 Sportster Projects are finally underway after many years.
We've got two bikes in the works. One is a stock 81 that's going to get the 'mild' treatment and one's is based upon a fairly radical Paughco frame as seen below. 11, 2014 We'll be updating and revising almost every page of the site over the course of the next few weeks so expect some minor glitches every now and then.
10, 2014 Duane Lansing, of Hydro-Fabrication and myself have decided to form a new joint-venture and start doing some collaborative custom bike work and parts fabrication under the umbrella of the 'Wylie Chopper Parts' company. 8, 2014 Various Springer projects are underway and we've hit the swap meets and shows with some new products. That's Duane's Panhead with one of our wide CBH springers under construction. Brake components haven't been installed yet as we're waiting on parts which is typical.
The Knuck above belongs to Kirk Sharp from 'Just Kickers' and it's being fitted with one of our California Ultra Narrow Wishbone fork sets. 4, 2014 One of our old friends and supporters just dropped us a line to let us know that they have a YouTube channel for those folks who just can't get enough Chopper action. I checked it out and I like it. Big Al and I have been friends for about 10 years but we've never actually met each other in person. After watching some of the vids I think this is a good thing because two of us together could be a dangerous thing.
If you're a garage/home/independent builder check out the BEOSC site as they provide just about everything imaginable for people like us. Click the banner for the YouTube Channel and have fun. 20, 2014 Darcy Allen and I drove down to Austin to talk with Jesse James about an upcoming project but unfortunately Jesse was to busy to see us.
It just so happened however that we did get a chance to talk with Mike (Fass Mikey) Vils and had a chance to reminisce about Dick Allen. Mike proposed that we put together an 'old school' type Biker Build-Off that he's calling 'The Real Deal' and it'll involve a lot more than just bolting on store bought parts to a store bought frame. We decided that the 'official' name of the event will be 'The Real Deal, Dick Allen Memorial Biker Buildoff' We'll be posting more details as things progress but we've already got TV and sponsors calling so it looks like this just might come together.
Click to see the tentative 'rules' for the Build-Off. Email me immediately if you want to get a bike project enrolled in this event.
Time is of the essence. Builders may get sponsor compensation but no guarantees at this early point in time.
Update May 17, 2014 We finally managed to get around to starting on the Harman Spirder build p roject that's been on the back burner for about four years now. The link is on the left column. Due to popular demand we've decided to start building Springers again. We'll do our original 'Old School' style and the 'modernized' version plus some repops of the old original Ness style forks from the sixties. I'll post progress as it develops. We'll be doing kits as well as just selling individual parts for other builders. Also looks like we'll get around to the Sporty hardtail article this summer.
Update June 10, 2012 We've moved the whole CBH operations to the state of Texas, in the rural area northeast of Dallas. This snapshot is one of our neighbors taken from the back door of the shop. We've rented a very small shop area but will be doing full-service custom work again and have signed on as a dealer for Paughco products.

We decided to go with Paughco since we've been using their parts for over 30 years and most of their inventory is still made in the USA which is remarkable in today's economy. If you're in the market for anything in the catalog drop us a line as we will make you some great deals. 20, 2011 As many people are aware the old original Chopper Builders Handbook site suffered what we initially thought was a catastrophic hardware and software failure in early 2011. This 'crash' destroyed not only the primary data on the main server and raid disks but also all of the data on our backup server.
