Cut the tubes into small lengths and mitre them up?
Good place to start however getting used tubes clean enough to braze together can be quite time consuming and plain gauge tubing is cheap as chips.
Is it possible to heat the lugs to pull everything apart and attempt to reassemble? I imagine if the lugs/tubes are pinned with nails it gets tricky.
It is, it does, but of all the frames I’ve chopped up (quite a few), only one has been pinned.

Armed with an old steel frame does anyone have a suggestion on how to practice brazing? Cut the tubes into small lengths and mitre them up? Is it possible to heat the lugs to pull everything apart and attempt to reassemble? I imagine if the lugs/tubes are pinned with nails it gets tricky.
