Great project, I always thought titanium frames were a mess to mod/solder. Will you consider brushing the frame using Scotchbrite pads?

Thanks!

Depends on the skills of the person wielding the TIG rod I suppose.

I won’t be refinishing the frame, it doesn’t need it. These came in a dull shot-blasted finish from the factory; mine was sprayed yellow at some point then sanded back, the result being as shiny as I’d ever want it I reckon. Excessive polishing of Ti frames just makes them look like nickel-plated steel imo.
