    I have one doubt thought, why is that we have tiny hole at seat stays and chain stays? Also why we have drilled holes where two tubes will be welded?

    @PatonHaus Před 4 lety +1

    Great work man! When jigging up the seat stays, could you lay them flat on your drawing and tack them together at the seat tube end? You end up hole sawing that end off anyhow, could that help in getting them properly aligned? Love watching your stuff, keep it up!

    • @PithyBikes
      @PithyBikes  Před 4 lety

      Never thought of that! The one thing that could be a problem is tacking could inhibit the fit up once they are put into place on the ST.

    • @PatonHaus
      @PatonHaus Před 4 lety

      @@PithyBikes In the video you mention that aligning the seat stays in your fixture is tricky because they're elevated off the drawing. I'm suggesting that you lay the tubes on the drawing and tack the ends together to hold them in that alignment. Then you can just lift the tubes and clamp them in your fixture. The next step of hole sawing the stay ends will cut off the tack anyways, so there shouldn't be an issue with fit up. Know what I mean?
