Possible Headbadge

Finding the artwork that will become my headbadge has been a difficult process. Lately, I've been working with Aaron Smith of Minneapolis Musette , and the first prototype he sketched is shown below. I'm not 100% certain about it, but at the very least, it'll become a limited-edition headbadge. The hunt for artwork has been a struggle, and the story about that struggle is here.

Photos Galore

Big love to Alex from A-train Cycles, who sold me his old D-SLR recently. The step up over my old point-and-shit (not a typo) is huge, and has me snapping tons of stuff. I'll be expanding the gallery on the website once I get the new design up, but in the meantime, you can see a whole ton of my work over at Flickr.

Becoming a Framebuilder

As I scramble to get ready for Minnecycle, I am more and more cognizant of the knowledge requirements of being a framebuilder when you step away from the workbench. The story of what I'm glad I know, what I need to know, and what I regret not knowing is available over on the blog.
