I finished sanding the frame Friday evening and bringing it to Stayer tomorrow for paint. Should be back with me some time next week.
As I haven't made a bike frame in two years I am rather pleased with these fillets. It is always tricky getting the fillets to flow out equally and evenly, to create transitions that will file/sand easily, without overheating the tubes. Especially the Max top tube is a bitch because it is so thin walled.
Anyways I have very little pinholes and no real bad undercuts so I am happy. Having made a lot of furniture over that last two years using fillet brazing I have gotten better at shaping fillets using a less violent filing technique. I am not as good as Sam of Stayer, but I'll get there one day.
