Re: Friday PicFest No.124
In honor of SOPWAMTOS there will be no paint this week since I do not apply it. Todd gets respect next week.

Re: Friday PicFest No.124
First posting in a while. I've been test riding more than building. Photos of carbon frame #2 below. It uses a Chris King InSet, Shimano BB86 and internal Di2 wiring. It's taken a lot of use and some abuse for 4-5 months now with no issues. Gives me confidence going into the next builds which will have full finish and logos.

Re: Friday PicFest No.124
Another frame done. This one uses Dazza's Cadenzia XL lugs, and Columbus Life tubing.
This is the second frame I've done for someone else - a friend Ben, who is chaffing at the bit to get his shiny new frame :)
Paint is Imron epoxy primer, followed by half a dozen coats of Auto-air semi-opaque, and then four coats of DeBeer urethane clear.

Here's a photo of Dazza's gorgeous Cadenzia headlugs, just after having cutouts added:

The next frame is already underway - this time I'm using Dazza's Custodian lugset, again with some customisation, and this time in shiny stainless steel, because I just don't know how to say no, and my fingers aren't sore enough already. Here's progress so far - lugwork and the beginning of a fork:

Re: Friday PicFest No.124
We've got a new toy to play with:bigsmile:
A custom made tube bender so we can do our own bending of rear ends to both our MTB's and revamped CX bikes.
I can't find the instructions anywhere to use though:suspicious:
Cheers,

It's been a busy month for me and this is the first batch of bikes that will be sporting "Paint by DORNBOX" but still under the watchful eye's of both Bryan Myers and Toby Stanton.

Didn't think I would make it to the party this week, but it all got done with minutes to spare. Time to clean up.
Here's to another great week!

Re: Friday PicFest No.124
Busy week in the shop, but still managed to go on a long ride and hit the water for some fishing with a dry fly.
I will have a shop styled display in the front window of Radish Underground all month. Swing by and check it out if you are kicking around downtown Portland.
The start of some lugs I carved up for the display:

Another Stainless Newvex road frame ready for paint (sorry for the crappy phone photo)

And some Bi-laminate action. The bike in front is a commuter for a tall guy with every bell and whistle, behind it is a one-off 29er that will be for sale on my site once finished. http://farm7.static.flickr.com/6018/...f090ce675f.jpg
Off to sit in the sun, have a great weekend!
