You are welcome. I know the whole quote as, "Balls" said the queen, " if I had two I'd be king"
That's right! I forgot the last part of the first phrase.
Well the fork saga continues.... I received the "24 inch" fork today in the mail. Not for a 24" but for a 26" tire. "Balls..." oh already said that. So I sent the seller a message.
I could use the Murray fork, or a 20" tire on the 26" Schwinn fork. Take a chance on another on line purchase....

Been a week, I better check in, Ebay seller refunded my money for the fork. So I bought another, waiting for it to show up. Some old pictures from Trexlertown PA:
That must be some old Trexler photos with Krate Mayhem in there. I hope he's doing well. Seems like I remember someone posting on FB recently that he was having issues again. Keep Dave in our prayers.
Yes, early to mid 2000's
Got the 24" fork yesterday. Will need to add some threads. Don't have my 1x24 die at home. I hope it is in my tool box at work. Then paint.
More threads:
Haven't needed one in a while, but that is one tool I wish I had. A one inch fork die
That fork threading tool is to 'die for'.
Fork is in paint. MRO High Solids black. The frame was painted with black Imron, no longer at my disposal. I hope they match.....
I got a cheapie off of Ebay that works well for my builds. A good quality one could be spendy though.

Well it has been 9 days and I am not on page 2. Moving from the bottom of page 1, there is no update. All week has been for the scouts. Preparing for the Court of Honor, printing cards, buying the advancements etc.
Next week I am at summer camp with the scouts, so when I get back I'll still have 1 month to get this bike assembled. I am glade I re-discovered Rat Rod Bikes. Besides this Twin Stik, I have many bikes that need to be completed. Another picture for your viewing pleasure, one of my Spoilers:
Three speed stick mounted to the kickstand mount.

It's great to hear that you're supporting the Scouts. It is a noble endeavor.
And the bike looks great too. Keep up the good work.

Campaign hats? Sweet mother of invention I don't believe my eyes! Awesome!
That is a piece of historical apparel and haberdashery that never goes out of style.
The ball cap is so, as they say in France, ordinaire, commun et général. Good to see
Scouts with the traditional campaign hats. I thought for some reason only Scout
Masters wore them? Then again, what do I know.

Most of the staff wear campaign hats. Several scout troops in our council also wear them. Our troop does not.
Not enough signal to post a video, all the troops march in review at Camp Horseshoe.
