  • Video 07 in the Beginner Build Bicycle Frame Series. If you've ever wondered how to build a bicycle this is the place.
    I cut the tube form that I will use to bend my chain stays. I also weld the pivoting V blocks that will push the tube into the form. A little machining / milling in this one. Fun!

    Hey Man,
    Your production work is excellent…love the way you work.
    I'm at the stay bending stage on my first build and I appreciate the help

    Really nice, you should spray some pb blaster Teflon lube for make the tube slicers more frictionless while you bend the chainstay.👌

    A block of wood to bend the tubing bo hoo. I bend it like a blacksmith or a barbarian. Just hand strength or technique and eye balling. Then tack then double check then weld. Shocked as hell i am. As i managed to build a hole scratch built motorized bike that way. Turned out nuts it does not seat 2 just the rider. It still needs a couple ajustments

  • @matanbenzion
    @matanbenzion Před 8 lety

    This looks like a really cool channel but I find it hard to follow.
    Before watching a whole video I'd like to know what am I going to learn. It takes some time to pick it up from the beginning and if I scroll down the time bar I'm not sure what am I looking at at any given moment.
    I think it should be hard to resolve this though. The videos are pretty good and detailed and stand on their own. However adding subtitles so the viewer can pick up right away at any time what is going on will take these videos to the next level!

    • @PithyBikes
      @PithyBikes  Před 8 lety +1

      Thanks for the feedback, I appreciate it. It's funny because the more I learn about frame building the less of a beginner I become. And then I start to assume folks watching know what's going on. I'll try to explain things more. Thanks!

  • @policedog4030
    @policedog4030 Před 7 lety

    I'm only on video 7 and I plan to watch all your videos. You have mad skills on the CAD software and freehand technical drawing and welding as well - so Please do me a favor though and go to the OSHA.Gov site and type the word "bandsaw" into their accident reports search page. You will find you get over 400 incident reports. There are descriptions of exactly how each one occurred but probably you will be able to tell just by the title of each incident that this is a risky tool. Obviously you work very safely everywhere else but with that much blade showing and no guard on your bandsaw its the only thing you do that makes me go "Yikes!" Usually they say to lower the guard so that only enough blade is accessible to clear the work piece. I hope I'm not a safety nerd.. people hate them.

    • @PithyBikes
      @PithyBikes  Před 7 lety

      I totally agree with you that it is a dangerous tool! Thanks for the warnings :) I can say thought that this specific band saw is maybe one of the less dangerous ones out there. Mainly due to its speed (it doesn't move the blade very fast). And the other reason is the blade I have installed on it. It's very similar to a hack saw blade. That said it will still cut your hand! Fortunately I have not had any accidents or even scrapes from this saw. So far most of the scrapes I get are from my bench grinder! And no you're not a safety nerd! It's just smart to use tools with safety always in mind. :)

    • @PithyBikes
      @PithyBikes  Před 7 lety

      I'd love to see that too. I'm guessing theres lots of fixtures that go down assembly line. The tubes on dept store bikes are super low quality and heavy. welded seams and thick mild steel.
