Yamaguchi Frame-Building Course
Has anyone here taken Koichi Yamaguchi's frame-building course? I've been looking into the various ways one can learn, and his seems to be the best. It's price is comparable to the UBI course, plus its only you and, at most, two other people and Yamaguchi. And he built for 3Rensho and US olympic teams, etc...
I was thinking about how, rather than paying somebody else to build a custom frame for me, I'd like to do it myself while at the same time gaining practical knowledge that could come in handy later on. Any information about what it was like, if it met your expectations, and what you ended up with at the end with would be great.
Actually, I'd like to hear from anyone that's taken a course or apprenticed with someone and made their own track frame.
