Devil's Darling

[The Renaissance Man]

That truing stand is cool! I love vintage tools and machinery. It's hard to tell what you did to the frame by the small picture.

Here's my frame & shelby shockease fork that I painted today. I used Nason (automotive,dupont manufactureer) paint, deep red. Devil's Darling is slowly coming together.

More to come!!

Here's my rims i painted tan and pin striped black today, Still learning the whole pinstriping.... tape off is easy but free hand is practice practice practice. You can also see my stem that i painted with clear paint. Remove the rust, shine it up & paint with clear. Poor mans chrome!!!

Heres a preview of almost done..... And some wheel building. Having 2 little ones & 1 income i have learned how to save money everywhere. I bought 500 spokes for $50.oo on ebay, so i pay $10.oo to have them cut to size and for the nipples.... (love nipples) Learned to build wheels on u-tube

love that chain ring and crank combo. I also learned wheel-building on Youtube!

The crank and bars are cool.Also wich utube vid are you using to build the wheel?

 

[kingfish254]

Good progress from what I can see in the tiny photos. You should really try to post full size photos so that we can see the bike.

The u-tube video is called " the biketube" it's in a couple different steps/videos.

 

[skiptooth13]

Some bigger pictures as asked for.

I used the "With out the BS, How to build a 36 spoke wheel."

Nice work man, love the front end of this one. I thought lacing and trueing would be a nightmare from what I had heard. Not bad with the right video and patience.
