Jiggety-jig


Since I have no tubing bender with which to make the crank, and since budgetary constraints prohibit the purchase of one at this time, I had to go ahead and make up a jig to weld the crank together. Here it is with the parts attached. The microphone stand gave its life for this crank. Tomorrow I should be able to weld it up and mount it on the bike. That'll clear the bottleneck to fit the seat and steering, and then, it will roll.

Just for the record, you said "make up a jig to weld the crank." This phrase should be used more often. Maybe we can make up t-shirts? "I made a jig to weld the crank." Or "I made a jig to weld the crank and I vote!"
