    "Building a welding JIG first" - design process and thoughts

    Very cool frame Ed! Thank you, I really appreciate your reply. @kingfish254 showed a picture here from a bicycle called 'Stardust'. I instantly thought how did he do that? Tight bends, alignment... skills! :cool:🤙 Regarding your frame: You could utilize the front part of a larger bike and...

    UNLIMITED Ratneck Rampage

    Thanks guys!! Checking this morning before going to work. Looking good! Thinking about options: Hmm..... green is cool. Today is "cycle to work day" in the Netherlands. Nothing special, since lots of people ride a bicycle to work. I took Vertigo Granny today. Arrived! Its...

    TRADITIONAL 🅵🅾🅾🅻🅸🅶🅰🅽 - 1930s Elgin Oriole

    I am happy to send you a model or DXF file, so you can get a local lasercutter to fabricate it for you :thumbsup: Gotta be honest; pretty excited about the idea! Interesting too that you mention this, since I was thinking to give two arms (for a Shimano CB-hub) away as a prize award for this...

    UNLIMITED Ratneck Rampage

    First welding session done. Alignment with a beam, hardened distancing plates and clamps is quite a challenge. I also found out that the notching for my headtube was not precise enough, so I needed to fill a gap. Its possible, but it doesn't make your welds prettier. It does do the name...

    The beer is: Hertog Jan (Duke Jan) Nature pure beer It is a great common beer in my opinion. Our local 'large' beer company called Grolch is great, but a little bitter. I personally like the sweeter beers like Hertog Jan. I am a occasional beer drinker, when something comes up, I'll try it. My...

    UNLIMITED Still Searching for a Name (and direction)

    You joined the cranks :grin: Looking forward to the proces. That frame can hold quite big tires it seems?

    Anybody sniffing BO 19 in the air?

    Always good to see you in a buildoff @Bike from the Dead , looking forward to the buildoff or 'build' thread. There is so much happening in the buildoff, I can't keep up with all the updates. How do moderators regulate all this? AI? ;)

    Sticker Prize Pack!

    Very nice! I love that style and colour pallet. Tiki Ratrod vibes 🤙 I think I found a place for your previous set of stickers from the SWBO. Kinda want them to be permanent and not forgotten.

    UNLIMITED Falstaff's Revenge

    Wow, that looks promising, I like where you are taking the heap of steel. The old bottom bracket (from the green frame) seem like a perfect place for a shifter :cool:

    First build name that came to mind when I saw that first picture: "Easy Wider" :grin:

    UNLIMITED Stacey’s Mom aka the Tall-Goose

    Wow, great ideas! I have seen such a mythical project in action once. That frame, despite the cheap price, looks very clean on the inside on your second thread-post. I have seen muchmuch worse. Can't wait for more progress!

    UNLIMITED Duality

    I like where this is going. Beautiful curves! Are those dropouts milled from one piece? And I'm guessing you are welding in a different space? Or else you might get holes in your shoes :rofl:

    What are you listening to?

    I have seen these live a few times. These girls sing in a awesome metal band called: MaYaN. This duet is absolutely magnificent!

    That is a cool fork. Looks like boardtracker material. I say: more dropout extenders! :rockout: ;)
