I did mean to take some in progress shots to show I didn't just hack into the frame with the Dremel all guns blazing.....but I forgot.
You'll have to trust me that there was measuring, marking and cutting small bits at a time. I left about 1mm of metal more than I needed to when cutting, then have started grinding that down on most of the areas. The ones on the down tube are going to be the most annoying, purely because they'll also be the most fiddly to do and on view the most - so I need to get them 100% right.
Looks like I know what I'll be doing tomorrow then.
Shift working does have some advantages.
