Worksman INB
The procrastination is finally over! Finally finished at 7:32 A.M. Monday morning, after about 7 hours of work this morning and last night.
I got the beautiful finish by applying a layer of paint and then hitting it with some spray glitter. Needless to say, I'm covered in glitter now.
Turns out building wheels was more frustrating than originally anticipated. The only things on this bike that are worksman original parts would be the fork, frame, and headset. Everything else was picked out by what caught my eye (minus the meat tenderizers I have for petals, they were a gift). Luckily I was able to pick up a yellow band hub for pretty cheap about a week ago. The front hub is actually from a Walmart bmx bike, I think it was a Next.
It's a challenge to source gold parts, since every paint/anodizing batch is different than and other batch. I would have liked to have had a better backdrop, but I can't fit this big fella in my car! Definitely won't buy a house in the middle of the next build off!
I look forward to the next build off!
Thanks for gazing upon my Worksman!
Good luck to all other contestants!
