I may be a slow builder but my stuff is straight. It's an aspect of the job I quite enjoy.
Finishing spearpoints + the eyelets I added on before the dropouts were attached.
Natural puddle, just faceted.
As-brazed. There's over 1/2 a rod of brass in that end & all the others as well.
As-brazed, de-fluxed.
Ditto here - that's money.
Yep.
Checking clearances. That's a panaracer 32.
Looking good - the dot is perfect center. just needs a little lovin'.
Seatstays at the get-go.
......and all fixtured up. Time consuming stuff.
Check.
Frame # 25 from 2004 back for a little repair - a stick-to-derailleur incident in WI. Off to get the area blasted and get a whole new dropout.
it hurt so bad I was barely able to finish the ride. yelps of pain, and I'm pretty F'ing tough.
Not bad! at least I got in one fall ride. Barely saw anyone but we did see a big fat black bear run all the way across a big open meadow - cool.
Grovel in beauty. Hozho'ji.
Glory from on high.
Working hard on Justin's "Stuart" frame and fork before starting Douglas H's project.
I gotta rethink the "Stuart" frameset, they will likely go up ( A "Stuart" is a full braze-on light tour/fender/disc 700c bike) as they are TONS of work!
Just cruising along, getting a good stream of orders, just got three orders in three days from three continents - Cool & Thanks! - Steve.
