Well, it's Friday at last. This week just flew by for me. Today, I got the head tube/top tube lug brazed on. The rest of the day was spent measuring, cutting, filing and fitting all of the tubing for the front triangle. We were given the opportunity to use the Bridgeport vertical mill to do our cuts for the fitting. I did one that way and chose to do the rest by hand. The bridgeport is nice, accurate and quick, but I had the time, and really wanted to do this by hand. I am a little ahead, so the extra time was ok. They fit really well at the end of class. You can see the mock up/fit up in one of the pictures. By end of Monday class. I will have the triangle brazed and finished. The chain stays are built, but not cut and fit yet. Having a bbq with some of the class here at the rv park on Sunday to celebrate our first week. Have a great weekend everyone!!!
