I had to 'freestyle' the layout, as picking up the joint location via my computer program was too time consuming given I had to recreate the tube in the drawing first, so I did it the old fashioned way! yay me.
Working on some new stuff, the seat stay crowns and mating dropouts feature radiused cuts for the bullets that will tension weld into the seat and chainstays, can you say invisible joint? fully plan to sell these to other builders looking for a leg up on the asian onslaught (is that spelled right?) ''designed in the usa''.
Also have some other fixtures to appear, backpurgeble chaistay fixture is on the short horizon.
Finally catching up on orders too, some patient folks out there, and some not so patient ones...but all are squared away now. From now on I am not in the custom frame business, doing stock only for the next few months.
Lastly, was witness to how shitty customer service can be. A shop owner, local, who sold an incredibly overpriced set of road brakes to a friend of mine, declined to help him with installation and even went so far as to claim the brakes were 'white anodized'. Holy shit, well don't worry mr. ''shop owner'' I fixed your mess and would like to point out that there is no such thing as white anodize per se, unless it came out of a rattle can (clearly the case as the paint was flaking off just from handling the things).
In a more happy note, as I cannot leave you with some depressing drivel, we are forming a single speed society here in park city that will feature secret events and all the coolness and irreverence you can handle. Stay tuned! first event is coming soon!
