Thanks everyone for the kind comments. Unfortunately I didn't accidentally build a spare!
I'm actually finishing up in my current job at the end of the month, so I will have more time to build frames. Not planning on going full-time, but I think I'm going to start offering frames to people outside of my immediate friends and family.
Overall the fork is excellent, very clean design. The only thing I'd like to see done a little more neatly is the cable attachment, as it's a simple guide riveted onto the rear of the stay. It's practically invisible when the cable is attached, however, so no biggie.
Whisky did have a supply problem as a US frame maker (dunno who) bought a load of No. 7 forks because they had issues with supply of their original choice, but that should sort itself out in the next month or two.
Current tyres are Vittoria Randonneur Pros in 32mm. 35mm would fit easily if I wanted to put bigger ones in there.
