    Scar

    Made a quick stand from a chimney dampers adjustment rod. Seems to work fine. I had another idea also but I quess I'll store that for some later bike.

    Scar - can I join the BO with it?

    I know, need to make a choise. If I may partisipate with Scar, I may do that change. Or not... 🙄

    Scar - can I join the BO with it?

    That´s on hold because I just wanted to make this one first. It´s all the same for me, actually. I recon I have enough time to finish Orange Blossom also. And if I don´t then I don´t...

    Scar - can I join the BO with it?

    Naturally I tried some wheels etc on it for proportions but they all came off and are replaced with other parts on the contest time frame... It would be nice to hear from the judges.

    Scar - can I join the BO with it?

    Am I allowed to join the BO with this bike? The reason I ask is that I started that frame 2019 but never got it done. Last month I digged it up from the pile and decided to make a bike from it. So, can I join?

    Build Off 16 Highlight Thread

    That´s true it´s not. I was not sure if it would qualify because I started to put together that frame last summer. Did not do much else but tack it together and left it like that. Picked it up again on june, so the timing itself would be ok...

    Scar

    Just made the first testride and everything works nicely. It has a 3-speed Torpedo with suicide shifter (it works but is not ready yet). Still gonna make some adjustments. I'll take better pics when it's ready.

    Thanks! I made the frame last year but did not get it finished. I hope I get it done this time.

    primer as top coat(with lacguer)

    I have started a build topic on this one, it's called Scar. This primer paint is very soft rattle can (maybe poor quality) paint, so it needs something for protection.

    primer as top coat(with lacguer)

    As you know, this site is called ratrod... To me that means no high end finishing nor high end painting. I'm keeping my builds rough and untidy but still want them to be durable, also the paint. I know that primer is soft and will not endure against rust, debris and wear, that's why it needs...

    Painting saddle?

    It'll be better with the stitching...
