i guess all i can add to that is a crotch shot!

I have tried to post pictures to this thread for several hours - I cannot get the images inserted. So I put the studio photos of my new Titanium Towne Bike up on Flicker at:

Rene Singer lugs and front drops filed to ease wheel changes.

Broke the belt on my lathe today and work came to a halt.

Before I splice the new belt, I need to fix something that's bothering me. Can't use the gears.

Holy tooling for those curved top tubes...too cool. Just making a tiny 29er on this end.

It rained today in Portland.http://farm4.static.flickr.com/3572/...47ca3b32_b.jpg
We got to use the Efficient Velo Tools headtube facing tool. It is awesome! The lower centering cone has a press in bearing to allow the lock to rotate without friction. It does 1" and 1 1/8", and has some big ass handles that take the pain out of head tube facing.http://farm4.static.flickr.com/3550/...91606b6a_b.jpghttp://farm4.static.flickr.com/3624/...5cf19e53_b.jpghttp://farm4.static.flickr.com/3652/...74508603_b.jpg
