    That is a truly beautiful project and I get the models too, I always make a model to get my 'brain round' an idea. Brazing with Acetylene/oxy is wonderful and one of my favourite processes, but I have had to switch to propane recently, you can do it as brazing is more about the volume of heat rather than the very high temp focused flame acet was designed for. An air blown torch with propane as fuel works well and you can use compressor as well, don't know what you have over there but the most common ones in uk are Flamefast. Very interested to follow your experiments, silver flows easy with air blown propane but I would guess it's only useful with lugged builds? I've used TIG to braze bronze, it does not flow as well as a flame, may be worth a go. Again an inspirational bike, sir!

    MacBook Pro 15" Battery
    A1175 genuine Apple
    I realise a secondhand battery is an odd idea!!
    However, I have had a laptop death earlier this year - pet terrorism.
    This was my then newly purchased second battery - barely used.
    I have had it just sitting around while replaced the dead mac but I've tested it in another and it's good to go.
    Battery info stats: Cycle count 29
    Condition: Normal
    Full charge capacity (mAh) 5216
    Boxed etc… and a considerable saving on a new one from Apple
    can send System Profile screen shot if required.
    £50

    Items in Acton collect/meet central London or Dalston.
    Will post of course but extra.
