Polished Princess

[Lipstick-n-Wrenches Gal]

I heard about this BUILD OFF and got hit by the creative bug. I decided I needed to try something different and be part of this very cool group. I'm excited and I am definitely going all out on this new build. The main body of my project will be a girl's "all aluminum" Monark frame. It will end up having an aggressive look but with many creative "lady like" touches included as days come. I'll be fabricating some very special things to add my girly perspective to this Polished Princess. Things coming: custom toolbox, custom seat, unique headlight, rivets, drilled holes, and a few other surprises. The Princess is getting ready for her debut....so it's time to get things in order for the big day!

Welcome. Nice flower placement. Violets are among my favorite. Super nice frame, too. I'm betting this will be a nice build...

Drilling holes in a Monark aluminum frame hooked me. Good luck.

Very nice frame to start with, looking forward to seeing more!

I'll be using this SWEETHEART sprocket to mimic the Roadmaster's front fork springer. How does the sprocket mimic the front forks from the Roadmaster? You'll soon see how I alter the bars on the forks....

Oh yeah, this is going to be cool.

I had to mock the Polished Princess up to see how she'll sit. She's ready to get all dolled up! She probably needs some sort of trick skirt guard too! You know...girly stuff...

What a beautiful build that you posted. Thanks for posting! Very nice! I hope to have as much fun with this one. I love the old board track bikes and want to reflect a little of that look too. I am adding many "girly" style accessories. Toolbox for make-up! Unique skirt guard so I don't get my skirt caught ! Fancy little chain guard. Aluminum headlight and a flower box. Plus, many other surprises. I love drilled holes....so I have to add them to the frame and maybe even to the custom seat. Time to break some nails.

Thanks so much for the warm welcomes! Honored to be part of this!!!!

I will be using a decorative outside light for my headlight....not your standard light! Needs to be sanded down to get the paint off but looks very cool for a front accessory. Plus, it's all aluminum like the frame! A little 'Lipstick and Wrenches' touch the the Polished Princess.

I'm looking forward to see your build, but unfortunately I regret to inform you that I've already used the name Silver Queen on one of my builds.....
