Another guy doing out-of-this-world work is Nestor Czernysz. His Flickr is fun to follow. Here's an example: https://flic.kr/p/2hEmK2N
Like DiNucci, he has a unique vision that not everyone is going to get. Even further out there than DiNucci is, from the mainstream or traditional shapes. Downright wacky sometimes. Check out this album of photos of him making some rack braze-ons for a fork. I think he may have spent more time on those two braze-ons than a lot of builders spend on a whole frame. There are about 100 photos of those braze ons, a part most of use would take maybe 5 pics of, but you can't accuse him of under-documenting his procedure.

Lately I think he must have cabin-fever from being cooped up, because he's been making decorative wing-nuts for his Var Third-Hand tools, and decorative washers for a chain tug for a track bike. Washers that will be hidden once you install the axle nuts. Speaking of nuts...
Here's the Var Third-Hands; notice the two different decorative styles: https://flic.kr/p/2iEgM1F

Oops, I just remembered this is supposed to be C&V. Never mind!
