i think dave yates is still at it but he only take you through some of the build as far as i know.
i seem to be getting a lot of negative comments(not here) from people i ask about the idea of building frames, like a you can buy a frame in china for peanuts ,or who the hell wants a custom frame when theres so many good frame to be bought for little or nothing.
well i think there still room for another builder we all had to start somewhere .
and my son in law seems dead keen to give it a go at least ,he knows his way round a welding torch and he aint no dope .i think he's going to buy that dvd set that was recommended by scooper looks like a good place to start.
so thanks lads for the positive thoughts much appreciated.
