Where do you get your brazing consumables and braze-on bike frame bits? I recently got an acetylene torch and have been poking around with it. The brazing rod I've been able to find locally seems too fat for bike work, and the flux seems more suited for plumbing. Nice work, BTW.
Brass rod (C-04) and flux (Type B) are here: http://www.henryjames.com/bicyle-parts/bike-frame-building-materials.html
There are a number of places to get frame bits. These guys have a pretty comprehensive selection: http://www.cycle-frames.com/bicycle-frame-tubing/home.php

Definitely a "make it work" moment. Cool!

Thanks, Pat. Dangerous links, those.
Yes. Indeed.
