frame jig

[Fv2]

In one of the build off threads someone made a frame jig on the cheap based on a jig they saw here.
I've scoured the site looking for a how to build,but can't find anything.
Anyone have and ideas or info?

Thanks Luke,
That's a good step in the right direction for me.

That sounds like me. More of an axle alignment jig, but an inexpensive start to a full build jig. part-way down the first page: http://www.ratrodbikes.com/forum/index.php?threads/boten-the-scrapper.93043/

Yup, it was you. It seems to work well given the cool frame you built.

Well, I built a cool frame. No place to put a seat yet, among other things. Life, other projects, whatnot getting in the way... but the wheels are aligned and in-plane, which is the point and beats the last frame I built. That perforated tube is handy and easily re-configured. Also, it is designed so two adjacent sizes slide into each other, for added flexibility in set-up.

That's one of the cool things about your jig, it pretty much comes pre drilled and adjustable.
Can't wait to see the finished product,that rack you added reminds me of the six pack carrier on a huffy champion.

I wrote and article about building a frame jig a few months ago. If it is ok with the boss man here I will post a link.

That would be cool
