The workshop above the RIH shop on Westerstraat 150 is where all the magic happened. That is where most beautiful frames where built, and where "vakmanschap is meesterschap" (craftsmanship is mastery) I had the pleasure of watching Willem Bustraan Jr. and Wim van Der Kaaij create superb frames by hand. We all have seen the YT videos of How a RIH is made, seeing VanderKaaij in action. Here are some pictures of Bustraan working on frame 9606 in Nov/Dec 1982.
