all brazing operations for my frameset have been completed. i am soaking the flux off my frame now. need to do some finishing work, paint it, then assemble it. just gonna do a simple rattle-can job for this one.


internal wiring for dynohub, a nut also threads onto it for use as a rack mount.
brass plate around the headlight wire entry hole

fork alignment tools

still waiting

racks still at powdercoat...they were packed to the gills when i dropped them off. saw a few bike frames, some artists' pieces, always a bunch of car rims and motorcycle frames, and a various assortment of odds and ends. these guys are BUSY! i should be getting the call soon though.

the past 2 weeks laura and i took some mini vacations. you can check out the details if you are interested here.

i am also very close to finishing my fork. the flux is soaking off now.

1 of 5

i have 5 racks at the powdercoater currently.
here are some pictures of one of them.
it has a removable fence so it can go between a std porteur to a basket.








now i have an opportunity to build my fork to complete my frameset.
