The big 100.

Another shop improvement, a DEE-LUXE tool setter. Good design is good design no matter who makes it!



Getting ready for NAHBS we've been cranking out the parts including a new batch of T3 Journeyman stuff.



Hellroy in his natural environment running a huge batch of Bender Bending Rodriguez arms!



Speaking of Bender, here's a little porn:



Last but not least, some new parts for the completely new stay mitering fixtures. This whole burrito will blow your mind but we'll save those for NAHBS.

Next finishing batch. These close-up shots are of the front of the BBs. They are all fab'd by Seven with Merlin materials except for one which is all Merlin ... the last Merlin.

I don't know why they don't come up in order but you can figure this out.
Happy Friday.

Driving a truck down at the last minute has it's advantages...

not a lot of building this week but I did deliver the Corsa Concepts bike. Also this week in no paticular order; A repowder job on my race niner, my red road bike just turned its hundredth mile today, the Cincinati mill that I bought for scrap price ($500) because I couldn't turn it down and it was only 2.5 miles from my house! and then to finish up, 2 shots of my heat treat oven which I finished this week, I'm going to try my hand at an AL. frame, my son Finn signed up to be my 75# test pilot this year.
It will also double as a powdercoat oven down the road I think. Happy one hundred everyone!
