  :Great_Britain: awesome freebie that is !

not a bad blind  blob weld either , 

scrub off that green stufff ,

 leave it as it is , it looks ace ,

get the metal polish out , give it a few coats of lacquer ,

 and go ride it !! :)

oldtired:
right wasn't going to bother doing this but had to put the build on hold for now , can't decide on the forks , to go for a brake or not ,its not going to be a lightweight and quite fancy a go with a front brake again,  not got a headset either  :'(

the following might end up being shite but the frame were free so not bothered

dints.......  i'm rubbish at welding as you've already seen  ;D  still can't find me mask so today i'll be doing it mostly with my eyes shut  :LolLolLolLol:     i can never figure out if there's too much juice or not enough juice ?  using a 20 year old arc welder dosen't help i suppose  ;D always seem to end up with little pits on the edges ?  still little dints is better than big dints  ;D

should have done some more before shots this first one on the right chainstay looked like a ball bearing had been shot at the frame if you put a opc bb bearing in it it wouldn't fall out how do you get a dint like that  :idiot2:
  

half way through this one just started flattening it off




left chainstay is the worst so that's next  will not bore you with a dint by dint up date  ;D  will just bung up the shots when done no rush maybe do some more next week?



just one shot,   not finished and as i said little pits on the edges  :uglystupid2: anyone  know why ?  might just dab em with the rod to fill em in , big one near the chainstay bridge in the shot above ,   not to bad for a first go  .......?
