Looks fantastic. Frame ends look really neatly spliced in.
Is that your own brake boss jig? Looks good.
Think I’ll copy your 2 axles idea next time I do a frame, the ends on the frame I’ve just built are slightly out of sync.

Thanks, really pleased with how they went. Been loving your work too.
Yes built it for putting brake mounts on to an old touring frame. A little fiddly to set up buy works well once you have.
There still was a little play in them but must have helped. I found they want to rotate with the tightening of the nut.

I have decided to use cantilever brakes because the touring fork I bought for its higher rake had them. It will help for clearance for bigger tyres and mudguards too.
I was going to paint it black but found an old tin of a really dark green while looking for the black.
