That is awesome! Master at work... "i don't have a drawing, it's just eyeballing" I'd be really excited if a Gatorblade was available for 29" with 130mm travel axle-crown spacing.

Paul, some familiar suggestions from my side. If you put the aluminium block on high parallels in the vice, you can slot from the front and the back in one go. No need for removing the jaws of your vice. Another suggestion I've learned is not to mess with the vertical alignment of the milling head. For me it takes a while to get it just right and the majority of the work is done with the spindle in this vertical position so I like to leave it that way. That's why I adjust the angle of the part preferably instead. I got a set of angle gauges, an adjustable one and a sine bar if it really needs precision and I align the part in the vice using them. I know more ways to Rome and you're probably used to do it this way but it maybe helps saving setup time in the shop. And I like to have more action to see so now you know where I'm aiming at. Love you Paul. Keep up the good work and stay safe. All the best, Job

Enjoy the way you 'think outside the box' to end up with what you want/need. Thank you for sharing with us. Great job on that crown.

Great video, its only when you watch a few of these videos that you can start to appreciate the amount of work, thought and planning that goes into making a bike .

[davidmotoman]

As always you Gave Me an Idea for the Front Fork Brace on My Cafe Racer Build :) Which has to also incorporate the Mud Guard mounting as well Thank you Paul :)

[lotuseven]

Hopefully you get some footage at the salt flats Paul be great to see

Paul and Mitch like to drink coffee, which is a great reminder for me to make some coffee before watching every new video. It's also optional to buy them coffee too, if you feel like they've earned it.

Paul, additional question. In the heydays of Paul Brody bicycle design and fabrication; did you and your team made al these parts on conventional machines as your doing now?

[omiion]

One idea for a video would be Paul reverse engineering a drawing for one of his many "Brodie" bike parts. That way he can once again have a drawing for his fork crown and other Brodie bits that are so clever.
Personally I would love a pair of Gatorblade forks for one of my Brodie frames.

You say Drill Press we say Pillar Drill 😮

I had a syncros fork with quarters for top caps; curious who instigated the idea.

thats a good fit ////the front guard is a bit low for salt

[jimingebrigtsen]

Why not use 2024 dimes to differentiate the modern build from the vintage fork build?
