I did a fair bit of work in the past few days. First off was to fix the seat stays which were cracked at the joint.
So I fired up the MAPP torch.
Using the nickel silver rods from Bunnings, I filled up the joint. Maybe a little too much, but it got the job done…and the seat post binders fell off due to the heat.
Round 2 - Put back the binders as straight as possible, so I stuck the 6mm screw in, then found some random piece of metal to clamp down binders.
Eyed the position and started heating things up.
After some sanding, it's looking better
