I wussed out, packed up the frame fork and headset and drove to my LBS. Just something about cutting the fork that gave me the willies. I'm told it's very easy, but I'm sure that's the second time. It's the first time doing it that's got me nervous.
My current project is a titanium frame I picked up for real cheap ($499.00), new. I'm almost done. Just waiting on the drivetrain.
