29′er Update

Accomplished this weekend:

• finished mitering top tube and brazed it into front triangle
• rescue of 5-month old kitten from 20 feet up in a tree
• mitering of chainstays and tacked to bottom bracket shell with TIG welder

Not sure when the next session is happening — the 18th, I promised Kate I’d stay home with her (and want to), and on the 25th, I have the Minnesota Ironman (a century, not a triathlon). Even if I didn’t work on Saturdays, there’s enough else going on where we’re a no-go. Maybe I’ll see if Paul wants to do the session on Friday afternoon/evening, and bust out all my work hours before then.

Additional pics of the 29′er are available on my Flickr account.
