I guess I'm in. This is always my busy/hot/wet time of year, so as usual-We will have to see if it get's done. My last build off was deemed not ratty enough ( http://www.ratrodbikes.com/forum/index.php?threads/trussworthy-6-5-done.58699/ ) ,so I suppose I have to make one that is. As mentioned I am super busy, so don't expect many updates until the deadline approaches.

I figured someone would notice the chair piece. It broke about 3 weeks ago and gave me an idea. As far as the Jets-Nope, could care less about football.

Thanks everyone else. Stay tuned

Kinda the plan... But unfortunately I never make anything that simple. It will be much more than bolting everything together. It has been an Idea I've had for almost 20 years.

I remember your Trussworthy build. Those bars were amazing!!!
Love what you are starting with and can't wait to see your mods to it.
Welcome back!

Made a bit of time this afternoon to make one piece of the puzzle.
Basically two rear derailleurs cut up and welded into an intrical piece. Will be added to and placed appropriately soon.

Also found time to fix this issue.

Cut off the rotten part and welded in a new piece of flat stock so that it could actually be bolted on.

Also put on new screws & retainers.

And lasty, cleaned up the office chair. Still a ton of work to do!
