    I have finished the fixture to assemble the handle bars. It will hold all the brackets in the proper
    place and hold the bars at the correct angle for assembly. I will also be able to drill the holes for
    the front axle thru the blocks to correctly locate them.




    You can see why it's going so slow. My fixture to mini bike ratio is pretty low.

    Made the die to crimp the forks down by the axle. Works well and is almost exact to the real fork. I tested it on a scrap piece of tube and it looks good. The crimp is not exactly centered because I was too lazy to drill the tube to pin the die before testing.

    The die worked perfectly. The frame is done! Now I can move on to something else but I am not sure which way to go.

    I finally have a frame in rolling form. I made the rims and other axle parts today. I had to make the axle bolts and bolts to hold on the forks. #12 bolts are not easy to find.

    Of course. Anything else would be uncivilized.
