Thank you for the support and good vibes!


Picture time

Here are some metal and the mold that didn't work. There are 7 metal strings in each cable section. (these are old "cables", I made new ones and they show in following pictures)



I call this Plan B. Let me explain how I'll do it;
  1. Get the main triangle of the frame glued up in place
  2. Fill the mold with resin and metal
  3. Get fiber and resin around those metal strings and stick them inside the bamboo chain and seat stays
  4. Glue and laminate it all together while it's positioned in a hub. The hole thing will be straight and aligned hopefullyl. (sorry, I guess there will be no metal to SEE when done)



The alignment of the center of the nut is quite good with my bike's.





Here's the head tube ready for laminating (first task of the day).




And an exclusive shot of my board.




Her name is Phoebe and she's the parts donor (and 2nd ride).




Lets hope the bike holds it together!
