5 Day Bender

Not the alcohol kind, the shop kind.

I'm wasted. Not in the alcohol way, in the shop way.

But I'm finally done.

First, there was the Braze-O-Matic 5000.

I don't know what 5000 stands for. But it's a good, strong number. So I'm rolling with it.


Maybe I'll put up some more detail after I recover.

No, I'm not putting a porteur rack on my mtb. Don't be a dumbass. It's a demo pic. Jeez.

    For what it's worth, I'm gonna put a porteur rack on my MTB.

    Awesome Pat. I have a similar one, and find that it makes getting level racks a whole lot easier.

    Get a digital angle finder (about $40 at Rockler or Woodcraft) and you can now measure frame angles accurately too.

    Scott, that is just sick. And I mean that in a good way.

    Alex, my rack-building life just got much better. And I did make note of your digital angle finder when you showed it in your Ivy-T post. It's definitely on my wish list.

    Jim, I hadn't. But now I'm all caught up. Dude! Nice work! Totally dig your ingenuity.

    Thanks Pat. I find it amusingly interesting how we're all sort-of building the same sort of jig...
