Just finishing up my first Worksman build this week. Here are some before and after pictures. Unfortunately, it's a little too cold for outside pics so it's a little tough to see the details in the photos.

Nice. Is that just clear-over-raw, or did you finish it up with something else, too?

Thanks - it's satin clear powdercoat over raw. Since the bars and forks are new but the frame is not, the satin finish helps the pieces blend together. It looks almost bronze with high- and low-lights in the sun.

Early '80's step through & 2009 M2600 with some minor mods.
Nice!

Luke.
 
Some more Headbadge decals:
From a late '90s bike I believe, also came in clear like one in post #181 above


Current Headbadge is a metal curved decal.
 
Looks good.... lovin' the front pegs.:android:
Thanks, we used to get round pegs back in the day, and could run them up parallel to the fork. With square ones they need to be vertically mounted.
I started to clean up those forks and I realized that under the silver paint they were chrome. Razor blade & bronze wool to the rescue. Not perfect but I like them on this frame.
