Nice; your usual neat work. Assembly time must be close by. Have you laced the wheels yet?

Wheels are coming up soon. At the moment I am really limited for space and need some good weather to do the job of putting in the engine and getting the bike on its wheels. No such luck recently. It's been very cold with intermittent rain storms.

I can sympathize with both the space problem and the foul weather.

Today has been chilly but dry but I resolved to get a space cleared out to assemble engine and frame. The clear-out and reorganisation took so long that I was only able to get the engine loosely assembled in the frame and then wheel it into its new home fro firther work.

I can now statrt the search for all of the other parts that I carefully put away ready for the build. I used and old wheel to help me get her in the shed but, at least, the matching engine and frame are together again.

More tomorrow - hopefully wheel building.
