Been some time ! Was busy with lot of things.

Just finished up brazing the FD mount. The frame is 'officially' done. Cosmetics remain.
The staining you see is some mild oxidation of the tubes, and some discoloration due to heat from the brazing

Here are the 'before' and 'after' pics of the bridge coming to life !

The seat stay bridge. All handcrafted out of 4mm thick 304 stainless steel strip. Took one hell of a time to do this ! the shape is created, keeping in mind the shape of the lugs on the frame.
