Firstly thanks for all the kind words! Keep em coming, LOL.
Questions
Kingcutter, will almost certainly be std oversize 28.6 31.7 and just usual braze ons if geared, no guard eyes etc though.
Col has been fixed, yes could do any effect and can paint name on etc with drop shadows and most other fancy techniques.
Steff, We can fillet braze 953 with bronze but this lowers the strength dramatically. 953 is very strong but you do lose a lot with that method it's just to hot. The best way to build 953 is to TIG weld it, this also allows us to build with any tube profiles. If we fillet braze 953 we still TIG it first then silver solder over the top this is the best and strongest way but it does cost more and take more time, but they are worth it!
Mr Smyth, Yes we still build with Deda but they get us a great tube set just how we want it and then they stop making certain tubes for no reason, they are frustrating, but their tubesets build great frames.
!Nhattattack! You can suppy your colour with a photo or just a rough drawing of how you want it or just a description if it's simple. I don't know how we'll short list or get everyone to view them though. What does everyone else think?
