Secret intel? Shop notes??? ha ha ha, I have a small livingroom floor for a shop on the 7th floor of a 20 floor building. I wish I had a shop!!! I use a hand saw, pocket knife, sand paper and files ect. I have not shot photos do to the fact that I dont have a plan or even know if what I am doing is going to work! Things just sort of have a way of gelling together as I make them and if I do scetch it first it is all out the window (to some extent) when I start working things out.

just wanted to pitch in to say I'm loving all this fantastic work, really inspirational. Thanks for posting all the photos too, you really have some amazing skills and the detail in all the work is superb.

Hello WOW Noglider turned me on to this. your creations are fabulous. is there a long backorder for chain guards?

I would LOVE to make you a chain guard but every bike is not the same if you think of the width of the BB spindle, the angle of the seat and down tubes for the size of the bike and so on. They end up being spec to the bike do to the fact that a bike with gears has NO room for a chain guard. I could make a "blank" so you can notch it out to fit your frame if you can get your hands on a nibbler. Or you can call the Rock Dove phone # on the bike if you ever get in Detroit, ha ha ha. Just let me know and thank you, ron.
