while figuring out the front legs for the fork i was not content with using straight tubing it did not look right at all so i hunted through my junk pile and found this

Image

bingo there ya go perfect nice curve and the length is close enough to work. this fork was pretty trashed anyways so sorry if anyone gets mad at me for cutting it up. however i did not have a drill bit long enough to do the upper holes so i moved onto something else.....trying to figure out the seat. could go with this...

or this.....hmmmmm or trash em both and figure something else out
