It's still in/on the frame jig/table. Things are slowly looking better in the dept. of "support my basic vices". Amazing how you can stretch
the budget with edible landscaping. This coming Tuesday I go for the last round of tweaking on my knees though even then will max out at
about 1/4 speed of previous normal. Moral of that story - Don't Get Old after afflicting major abuse to yourself while younger.

So, with that said this coming summer should see me back to it. Been collecting pieces/parts and doing some major contogicating
during the interim so have a good focus how I'll be happy with it when the vroom-vroom time gets here.

Bit late with the advice there bro , At 63 yrs I got a ac collar bone separation , broke left femur (just short of being a hip problem) shattered left ankle and many more smaller but no less permanent mementos of a life In the fast lane !

On some mornings I can be louder than my breakfast cereal at the same noises (except I got added CRUNCH ) !

Not all were bike related , 20 yrs as a main propulsion diesel engine hole snipe in the US Navy and a few memorable libertys in certain ports did their bit as well !
