new stays and some file work...fork too





Still have alot to learn about brazing! This crown was different than the previous two, the shoulders were not hollow cast. Plus the steerer I chose is way beefy at the crown end. I think that I am trying to braze at too low a temp... so worried about frying stuff that a proper pre heat is not reached and I fry anyways!
Dissimilar masses are always tricky but I got it flowed.

Lookin Good!
Fender eyelets? I'm interested in seeing how those get brazed on, is there a jig? I'm guessing you have a jig that is it's own work of art. I hope you give this one a proper powdercoat, and I still think its needs pinstripes.
