Quality is worth the wait hands down. Yes, some frame builders do build alone, then again there are some who work with others. It may take the builder quite some time but at least I know the frame is AMERICAN and his or her family is fed. Cost? $$$ nothing more than what people already spend on njs second hand frames.
