Finally finished the Blue Ribbon Trophy today.

Had to layout and drill the chainring

Painted some parts

Then do a little starsNbars wire wheel treatment to the base.

Final reassembly

Brought it inside to show off to Queenfish after I finished personalizing it for TRM.

Here are the final pics before I ship it out this week. Sorry it took so long.

CONGRATULATIONS Jim @The Renaissance Man ON YOUR BLUE RIBBON BIKE!!!!! Elgin DecoLuxe was a beautiful bike and a blast to follow.

Here is the final video of the Trophy in action. The freewheel also works.

This prize should have its own build thread!

This prize should have its own build thread!

Thanks man. In the past, the winner trophy did have it's own build thread and it was usually going on concurrently with the Build Off. I'll see if I can dig them up. Since I got such a late start on your trophy, I sorta co-opped this thread to document the building of it. I hope you continue the tradition next year.

Awesome job on the trophy! It's super cool.

So the previous winner makes a 1st place trophy? Is that the tradition?

 

[LukeTheJoker]

It was for a while, but died out a couple of years back.

Okay I'm throwing prizes into the pot..
Ive always enjoyed the wacky prizes that come out of here,and it adds extra fun.

I came across these on fleecebay,and thought would make a great prize.Chunk of raw metal to hang on your wall.
Price is great for USA but not for abroad.Shipping is just Route 66 robbery.
So I decided that the winner gets a choice, either the item below if you are in the USA, or a Tee with your winning bike printed onto it(If winner is out of USA you have NO choice.The printed tee will be your prize.)
The Tshirt will be of your color and size choice.

OR Rat bike,the guy says there are some defects?Looks like he is knew at laser cutting. So I like to give people who give it a go a chance...View attachment 31173
And second place gets a choice of one of these Tshirts. You pick your slogan,size and color.
Once you have chosen your design I will let you know the colors that are available.View attachment 31174

Your welcome Jim. Glad you like the trophy. Your build deserved a cool trophy. Hope you continue the old tradition next year.
To go along with your TRM DecoLuxe Trivia, here is some trivia regarding the trophy.
I've hidden 6 builds into that trophy.
