Oh, you're the Bikesmith guy. I gotta get one of those cotter presses at some point this winter. I've toyed with the idea of building one myself, My father-in-law gave me a great set of vintage power tools, machining tools, including a metal lathe, I've never used it before, but i would like to learn how to use it. The tools were all his father's tools, that he used to build an airplane in his back yard. my guess is most are from the '20s and '30s and some are in NOS condition.

man, sound's like I missed out on a great time, next year I'm going to make it a priority. Sounds like there were some beautiful bikes there, cant wait to see some pictures up on the ABCTour website.
