Hello Vsalonistas,
I am an electronics geek at heart, i like analog photography as bit of a balance to work life. I only recently got back into biking, i find it helps keep fit while enjoying oneself. I ride some nice retro steeds but about a year ago got inspired to try building my own bike, there is no off the shelf version of what i wanted.

The butt-kick that really got me hooked like heroin was the Chris Bishop Raw NAHBS Track bike, seen here:

I spent a lot of time on the internet in the next weeks and days, i was walking in Antwerp and found a great book called cyclepedia about a guy called Michael Embacher with a huge collection of awesomely rare bikes, the one which caught my eye was a stripped down messenger bike, this one:

I figured i wanted to actually build my own frame now as the brazing and process involved awakened the inner OCD in me, i soon found bike cad and transferred what i had seen in pictures to a basic cad version, here:

Commandment 11th 75-Parallel.png

Top tube 25,4 Down tube 28,6 Seat tube 28,6 with 75degree angles on both seat and head tube.
I have now acquired the tubing and lugs and other materials need to start practicing brazing, i would be very interested in anyones views on my bike cad creation, does it look like something that could work ?.
