Nice! They look so good I was wondering if you got them laser cut!Thanks!
a grinder , hand drill and files
I traced only one , then cut and drill both at once through the whole process , then chamfer and file the edges individually at the end

Me no budget for that !nah you can see i messed up the alignment a little between the hole and the cuts to make the axel slot.
you make them lazer cut now or still doing it this way too ?

Still doing everything by hand so far.
I am thinking about doing a run of 5 fairly simple frames that I might get the dropouts laser cut for, mainly so I can get LTJ cut into them... Seeing as all 10 dropouts should be the same, I figure the cost to get them cut would be less of an issue spread over the 5 bikes than just getting 2 drops done and just one build having to wear the whole set up cost.

Very funky little bike! Should be a wheelie machine.
Great work on those forks! This is gonna be wild.
I totally missed my own joke. Thanks for pointing it out TRM. Now that I see the bars the watch makes sense now too.
