Just jumped on the wife's new computer, it has spelling auto correct so I should look like a genius! :mrgreen:
Sandwich.
Good job on the frame so far, welded through a seat tube myself before, took me 3 hours with a rats tail file to fix it!

Re: Schwinn Big Chopper
Its coming along great. Glad I might have had a little inspiration in you building. Really we aren't building
space shuttles so anybody can do it. I kinda understand the tired of building one. Your suppose to take a
break and then jump back on it when the urge hits you. Heck I stopped and built my workbench top yesterday.
I think those tubes make a frame a cantilever , so that would make them cantilever tubes...or middle tubes. :lol:
As far as benders go , I have three and bent these cantilever tubes around the edge of my outdoor table in the
backyard. With a 10' piece wrapped around a big template it bends nice...no heat needed.

Curtis Odom did it like this. I think he used a wood router and cut a groove half as deep as the tubing he was bending
and the same width, in the center of the two pieces of wood. If that makes sense.

Re: Schwinn Big Chopper
You put a couple washers on the sprocket and use an off set rear sprocket. Looking good !
I have noticed around my shop when there is any bad language , its right after there is something
bleeding profusely. I take those 85mg aspirin so a small gash looks like an amputation. :shock:

The problem is that peatbog isn't too good when it comes to paint.
Have you seen the horrible job he did with Eliminator or One Sweet Ride?????
