Ready!

A slight delay from working on this frame. I am back on track and will show real progress over the next week. I have prepared the down tube to BB shell joint for brazing. I lined the tubes up over my drawing with the down tube in the socket. It is then scribed to the miter and then cut by hand. This miter doesn't need to be perfect because the taps will clean up any extra little bit.


Every thing is lining up like it should. I hope to have this front triangle together soon.


Next, I will clean the primer off the BB joint and add more silver to the seat tube joint. I wasn't quite happy with it. You can see alot with primer on it. I will then tack the down tube into the shell above the drawing and then finish brazing it in the vise.
