is it finished, no, i did start, and ran into a problem, of all my own doing...ok i brazed the bb on backwards, i got so caught up in making the joint as clean and well fluxed as possible, i forgot to notice the frame was upside down for brazing, and when i turned it over...DOH! so ive got more metal on the way to get her done, as well as some racks, and yes she will be the steed indeed. In the mean time, and having metal and a lathe at work at my disposal, i am building a picture frame style jig out of 3in channel. Also talked a few others into letting me make them frames for cost.sooo im pumped about all that. and im also refurbing about 30 bikes for a free bike project im working on...it seems spring comes and life begins again.
thanks for the well wishing./
