I’m on a tear. I’m selling t-shirts to help build out my framebuilding business. If you can’t afford to buy a shirt, could you help spread the word via Twitter or Facebook?
Been awhile since we’ve talked, huh? Yeah, I’m still alive. Things are going okay. I’ve had a bit of a span of self-realization lately. I won’t call it a “come to Jesus” as I’m still devoutly uninterested in religion. But yeah, other things have been murdering my focus on the blog, so I haven’t been [...]
Hit up www.minnecycle.org for full details. I’ll be there, showing off my work. Pics from earlier shows: 2009, 2010.
So yeah, Minnecycle approaches and I’m behind the eight ball. Go figure. Anyway, the scramble is on, and I should be able to pull it off. But things have been nuts. Yesterday, I came in to the office super-early so I could leave early. “Early” was much later in the day than I’d like. The [...]
So I spent 11 hours in the workshop yesterday, as part of my rush to get ready for Minnecycle. Above is one of the things I produced after getting sick of rooting around for the proper Dremel bits. Sure, it sucked up about 15 minutes of work (not counting paint-drying time), but it was a [...]

Man. I am way behind schedule on a lot of stuff right now. Work is kicking my ass senseless, and with the impending move and other fun, I can barely keep my head above water right now. Behind the curve on packing. Thus far, I have gotten the books and about 2/3rds of the bike [...]
As you read this, I’m off at the inspection, one of the big steps forward in buying a new house. It’s just one of the plethora of things I have to do between now and July 28th. Today, I’m also picking up my DD214 (VA loan) and a metric ton of boxes. After the office, [...]
There are things I wish I had paid more attention to in school that would help me a lot with my framebuilding. Math. No, seriously. There’s a lot of geometry and algebra used when designing a frame. Sure, there are programs that will handle all that for you, but man, geometry skills that I haven’t [...]
