    Default Made-to-Measure Steel Frame for a Dinosaur

    Not me, a real dinosaur.
    I thought some of the metal working fans might like this article about fabricating a mount for a T-rex. I remember a PBS doc. about this dinosaur, how it was discovered and ownership was established.

    I have an old Univega steel frame that has a 67cm seat tube and a 58cm top tube. Been trying to give it away with no takers. I hesitate to send it to the metal recyclers, but other than making it into a tall bike, I'm not sure what else to do with it.
