Lots To Talk About!!!

Howdy folks,

So I have a lot to talk about! Building has began, and everything is starting to come together.  Sorry it has been a few days since I posted on here, just have been busy. So first to talk about is that my Plyboo has arrived, and metal pipe for the rear dropouts, exciting news right?

2 Plyboo Sheets

I then traced out all the pieces in need for the frame.

It is kind of hard to see, but I traced the pieces out from the template

Next, I cut about a 4 foot section off where the templates where, and then cut them on the out on the bandsaw.

So there is the overall shape of the bike, I think it looks pretty neat. After the initial cutting out I next started to lighten the inside pieces of the frame.

As you can see I cut holes into the frame to lighten up the material so the bike wasn't so heavy.

Last, I cut the center out of the frame.  Also, you can see that I cut off the the spot where the seat post will mount to the bike, I will insert it into the frame itself. 

So, you can see that I got a lot done.  I also got news that my actual bike parts are in, so tomorrow will be a really interesting post.  Until tomorrow, have a good one!
