First section finished

Yes !!! The first section of the frame is finished !!! This section (see photo in previous blog) will hold the front wheels, steering housing and pedals. I closed the open ends of the square tubes by welding 3 mm plate in them. This will create strong corner sections that will allow for the best match of strenght and flexibility.

The welding is also improving more and more as I go. The machine is doing better now I have the settings right and everything checked and sorted. Next week I hope to have some more copper tips and another 2 rolls of wire.

The coming week I hope to start cutting the mid section tubing (bottom part) and fit it to the front. This will increase the frame quite dramatically and I need to start preparing my storage location (the ceiling or wall). It would help if I could sell the Yamaha Streetfighter so I gain some space.
