SHOW US YOUR WORKSMAN BICYCLE

That turned out awesome @Greg Kozak

We need close ups of the headset bolt and seat clamp that you made!

A bit of a back story. When I got the frame the headset had the wrong tabbed washer and the nut was missing. Cheap enough so I ordered a new one. When Shawn saw that he sent the new headset but refunded my money. A real stand up thing to do. And I really appreciate it.
While I was waiting for the new headset I took it as a challenge to make a nut out of a piece of bronze I had. I also made a seat post clamp and some thick washers for the rear axle. I made new rear axle lock nuts that go on the inside of the frame that are the same thickness as the original but 1" across the flats for more bearing surface. 20 miles today. Greg.

I'm sorry, It's Steve, not Shawn.
While I'm here, the rims are Velocity Blunt 35s.
Surly ultra new front hub. The ubiquitous Shimano cb-e110 coaster hub.
Run of the mill one piece crank with Neptune sand dollar spider and Sugino chainring. Origin 8 tourist bars (really nice).
Greg.

Raw tab free I got through Rat Rod Bikes.
Posed in front of my raw 1954 Rivett 1020s lathe.
A big thanks to our fearless leader for making this possible.

Great looking bike @Greg Kozak! I'm looking forward to building my own soon.

Anyone ever easily mod one of these to take a 3'' tire? I bought an INB from Chuck a long time ago and would love to fit it with some chunky wheels and tires.

Quick build.

I'm sure it can be done. However I tried to run 2.35 tires in mine and they rubbed. So a 3" would take some effort.

Brand new. Changed out the bars, seat and pedals.
Next I'll get a new stem. Those folded ones work but geez.

A sure sign that Spring is in sight when I ride a cruiser to work! Had a little struggle getting in the front door though.
