DESTINO FLYER (she is all done)

[karfer67]

Well timing works well with this build. I was contacted by a client to build a bike so what better to do with the build than enter it.

schwinn canti, tank, and prewar columbia i think fork. The frame has seen far better days, at some point someone thought it would be a great idea to drill holes in the seat post tube but after decided to weld them closed with horrific results. They also spread the rear for a five speed but went way too far so that will need attention as well. More to come soon, im honored to build along side you guys, good to be back

Glad your in again,nice to watch your cool builds take shape.

 

[karfer67]

Thank you so much, im quiet excited to do this one because the client who i met at shiny side up last year gave me free reign pretty much other than she liked my past builds. So its my traditional style, a lil old, a lil new, a little ratty, a little shiny. Time to get to work tomorrow this frame is a mess you will see what i mean.

Blast from the past. Good to have you in!
I see you've been doing scroll work.

 

[karfer67]

Here and there, got a babbo . Its totally different than normal pinstriping, basically your holding the brush straight up. Thanks and same to you, your bikes are always top stuff.

 

[scrumblero]

What is this babbo you speak of??

 

[karfer67]

Its a model of mack pinstriping brush for scrolling. It also works pretty well for lettering
