My brother brought his new bike by all built up, got a couple of shots. Seattube is 28.6 x .035 4130, seat post is the top 1.5" of a 25.4 cheapie with a shim. I got it close and 3 thin 1" id stem spacers finished the job.
This is #2 for me. It needs some paint, but I just had to ride it. I didn't clean the old stuff, get new cables/housings, just slapped it together last night so I'd have it done for the Friday S&T threads. I'm riding it until the end of the month without any clothes on it and then it'll go out for either paint or powder. It only took 9 weeks instead of a whole year like #1, so my process is improving dramatically. I've got to thank Daltex for letting me use the shop too. And Glenn, those pictures are nice, but they don't look nearly as good as the thing looks in real life. Great job on that one!
As far as geometry, I'm a MTBer that rides road every so often so I like the look and functionality of a sloping top tube. I know a lot of road guys don't like it, and that's cool. We all like bikes. But this gets me the height I need to be comfortable on the front without 3" of spacers under the stem--spacers under the stem to me are a no-no--it means the HT wasn't cut right from the get go IMHO. Hopefully it'll have clothes in a month or so.

Brazing is getting good too finally:

I finally got my personal city bike done. A few more pictures here. 1" toptube bikes aren't exactly rock solid kid carrying machines. Soon enough she'll be riding her own. I've still got to build a stem and a rear wheel, but I just had to get it together and ride. It's been a long time coming!

Send out one and starting another.
Sunday is the new friday! Here's few pictures of a frame I made for my wife. I took a long time to finish due to having two kids, moving, remodeling a house, building a workshop etc, but it finally got done this spring.
