hey.
Some of you saw my first render of the frame in the Gearbox thread, well here's the final version for those who are interested.
Some helpful members at a swedish mtb-forum just gave me all the bearings and bolts for free.
Another member is going to watercut all the sheetmetalparts for the frame for a bottle of whiskey and the metal-warehouse is sponsoring with rawmaterial.
Me and a friend will lathe all the axles and the headtube.
We will also do the tube cutting/fitting at his place.
So now i'm only waiting for the sheetmetal and tubing to arrive at my place so i can send it to the watercut guy.
Finally the project is slowly on its way to become a frame.
I hope you like it!
ps. i will post updates along the way. as soon i have something to tell or show
