Hi, here is today's progress on the trike frame.  Yesterday I had mostly finished the front part, and today I did finish it, putting a fibreglass / recycled tent frame crush bar across the inside of the tube so tightening the bottom bracket doesn't crush the aluminium rhs.  I repeated the feature on the main frame as well, and holesawed bearing casting holes in the main frame too.  From an old bike tube I made gaskets for between the 4 bearing castings and the frame.  So the frames all done and ready to take other trike parts.

Will report again soon.

Regards

Steve Nurse
