    Default Process for outlining lugs?

    I am far from building my first frame but that doesn't seem to keep me from thinking about aesthetics. I really like the look of a contrasting color painted on the edge lines of lugs as a finish. I'm curious as to how this is accomplished. I have thoughts about masking and small brushes but of course those ideas are coming out of an inexperienced head. I'd be grateful if some of you who have done this would please elaborate on the methods.

    Thanks,

    Cliff

    No masking - just brushes or paint pens.
