Sickness

 There are times when a frame comes out good. There are times when a frame comes out less than good.
 Then there are times when a frame can only be described as 'sick'.  I don't use this term to assess the quality of workmanship normally......I don't really use this term for anything other than what I feel when I'm not well.-That said , I make an exception and proclaim that this frame is about as sick as anything I have ever built. I'm kind of dumbfounded.... ever since I have come back from teaching it feels like I'm the one who just got a lesson in my craft.
From this point on I'll have to live up to this monument to sickness in steel.-It won't be easy but then, that's what keeps it interesting.

    I had that yesterday, the beating on the vise part.
    Had to walk away and then come back and get manly and squish some stays for clearance, clarence.
