So today I wanted to get the gussets for the rear dropouts cut out so I broke out the grinder with a cut wheel. Traced it out on some cardboard and cut it out then transferred that to some metal then cut that out. Might as well give the fish a tail. Tried a different set of forks I think they...

Got the backside of the cover for the seat where it mounts to the top bar cut and formed to shape will do a little more when I get more time to get a few tacks to hold it. I don't like the dropouts that are on here so I cut some rear load off a kids bike they kinda look like a conehead Pac-Man...

Good idea to hang in on the wall if it's that bad.

I see one

Looks almost like the one I have that's better than nothing but not big enough for anything 😄

Thursday I got the seat tube and the stubs left from the rack trimmed down and smoothed out. Got seat base tacked on and got the backrest fitted still need to tack it on. Next I want to make some covers for where the seat will get welded to the top tube so that's what I worked on Saturday after...

Out on a ride with the grandkids again About half way felt a wobble in the crank and looked down and Must have forgotten to tighten the outer nut:rolleyes:

Yeah got some other stuff that I need to cut off from the rack too. Planning on putting some gussets in front of the dropouts also because of the bends I put there. Also I weigh 155lbs soaking wet.

Love it

Thanks I'll check it out

Got to looking at the rack off the other bike and thought with a little bit of modifications I could turn this into a back for the seat. Did a little cutting and fitting and got it close just need to do a more fitment. Grinding fish mouths to fit the tubing and such. I also cut the plywood out...

Trying to use what I have on hand money kinda tight.

My minds working now gotta couple ideas that will have to wait till after work.

Yes but my seat making skills are limited kinda thinking something like a motorcycle

Yeah that's what I was thinking plus the length fits better.

Put the fork and wheel on the front after work today and messed around with the seat for a little while. Got it cut down close to where it will sit just need to do a little fitment around the tubes. Afterwards I wanted to check out couple different chain guards I had. The one that came on it ...

I got the back cut off both the bikes and started to fit one side. Had to work Saturday so nothing done then but got some more work done yesterday. I matched the new drop out for the other side found something to use for some inner sleeves for the chain stays. The seat stays slid right into the...
