Lots of stuff going on!!!

I've gotten alot accomplished in the past few days.

The first set of fenders that came off of my jig were quite nice looking, however they were about an inch small in the radius. I Wound up building a whole new jig, which I believe will be getting some serious modifications here soon.

Below is a shot of the fenders in the new jig.


Here's the first fender I pulled off the new jig, and a few shots of the laminations. They came out pretty nice, fit and have enough clearance. I put the first coat of polyurethane on it tonight.



Here are the panes that I was talking about. I'm going to suspend them within the triangle.





The frame has really been an adventure, but it's coming along nicely.

Here's a shot of the bottom brackets that I curved to look as if they were molded.





and here is a shot of the extended heat tube.



Thats it for now.

Cheers!!!

It's been awhile


I started my summer industrial design class with the hopes of finishing my tall bike frame I started last fall. It's been coming along quite nicely. Below is a shot of the frame in it's current state.


Below is a picture of a fender bender I built, it's still in progress, but then again everything is in progress at this point.
