Yeah he was telling me he used to break about 20 needle files per lug. Or some crazy number anyway. His hands were cracked and bruised from all the fine work, polishing etc. He's a proper artist.

He went through over 100 files for @LongAndWinding 's frame. See first page of this

Just looking through his insta...he used to fabricate lugs by welding/brazing to tube and carving out one of 2 design for lugs.
Only recently he's had the design cast into lugs so should be far less labour intensive.
Work of art.
