Hi Greg yes this is it mate, pure 4130 american not the rubbish that the chinese try to pass off
Hi Lazychubs yes its held out perfectly mate, its had some hammer from me in the local woods and i aint no waif, ask Greg but to be honest i knew the frame would without a doubt, id prefer a brased frame over tig anytime, theres much more holding the joints together but it takes so much longer to do, two passes on each plus cleaning up
no wonder its a dying art.
I didnt intend on doing the forks that way so didnt spend much time on them but even they have held up to a pounding and the look has grown on me.
Thanks for all the comments guys, after all its
made
