The Lucentezza is off to Joey for his magic

Disc brake, belt drive, IGH, dynamo hub, internal wiring, etc. It checks a lot of the boxes.

I guess I've missed a few of these.
Oregon Manifest was a lot of work. And I have a baby boy now.
His and her bikes bound for Japan are being worked on this week.

First post. Big thanks to Richard and the rest of the crew for this site. It's been invaluable as well as a great source of inspiration. April 9, 2011 I began the process of building out my shop:

Come June and July I had scored some free windows and was a framing madman:

I wanted power on by this August and I met my self imposed deadline:

Power is ON. by BLACK CAP Studio, on Flickr
Around late September I got all the doors up, my bridgeport in place and a first coat of paint just in time for a moose of all things to smash one of the windows. Yes, you read that right: a moose attacked my shop...

It's now October and I put a small finishing touch on the door:

Lots more to be done but I'm getting closer each day. Shops a bit spartan but that should change in the coming months. More pics of the shop build out here and also here.

See ya at the races tomorrow.
'night y'all...
Flew thru the better half of a 48cm CCX bike this morning but still have a couple things to finish up. Plus a couple of random stay smashing shots.
Since everyone likes pictures I'll do a before and after on my workbench too.
Painting a cross frame and happy new owner. A few from the Builder's Ball. More well attended than anticipated.
