We saw the lug blank tubes on the lathe thinning the walls from the .058" OEM. Today I cut the miters on the mill, there still was snow in the street so no riding today. The two HT miters were spot on. The HT lug blank is a 38mm diameter tube and the 1 3/8" hole saw was just right. The TT/ST miter (on the TT blank) needed to be about 31mm. The 1 1/4" hole saw was real close diameter wise but the angle was 1* off. A few strokes, check with a vernier protractor and we're good to go. I washed off the storage LPS-3 I good on my tube stock and the chain stays will be some of the first torch work.

I mentioned that the earlier frame I built for this purpose was a bust. Here's a shot of it mounted to my frame geometry jig. The axles are at the same height off the base. Both the ST and HT are close to 2* more laid back yet the drop is almost 3cm greater. Again I think there were a couple of errors in the frame's jig set up.

The lug blanks are also seen.
