    So I bent up a set of frame tubes. Then bent up a second set when I worked out the bends were wrong.



    Anyone remember Sine/Cos/Tan?



    So many angles to work out where to cut the frame tubes for the headstem.

    That's basic boilermakers/pipe welders stuff. I learnt it at TAFE.

    Maybe google geometric development, should at least get you a start.

    Possibly, but this one is a suck it and see/proof of concept frame.

    Hopefully get it running around the complex in a week or so, although the managers(cunts) put a load of speedhumps in last week (The worst one was installed right in front of Ben's) so might have to travel to a new test track.
