this is a work in progress. i've got plenty of frame and shirts lying around in my room so why not SLAP em together?! though my walls are running out of room. also, i cut my thumb so hard while taking out the glass in one of the frames. that glass is going DOWN.
Decided that framing cost to much for its own good. Bought mahogany stair trim to mostly match the cherry in the speakers. 1/10th the price. But wouldn't do again without a proper mat cutter.
Newest from based on my latest frame designs with some updated design. Frame is based off two of my favorite marvel villians Apocalypse and Ultron.
I had alot of fun revamping the design from my past frames. Created Three different modes for this frame: Burst, Flight, and Battle.
I made some progress refurbishing the used jig I bought. The base is now painted including my logo. The backbone is clean and free of most of the grime from being stored in an attic for years. Now on to cleaning up the tube holders and dropout mounts.

This A-frame (near Beltline/Webb Chapel) appears to be an old Whataburger, but .. I can't confirm it. It's now a Tacos Plus restaurant.
My first "handmade" frame, purchased in 1993-4(?) used but straight and with a great new paint job. Built by Don Francisco Cuevas here in New York. This bicycle saw many years and MANY miles of hard duty till finally buckling under the pressures of NYC use. I'd say this is the bike that later inspired me to learn the art.
Hmm, I think it's a male white-tailed bumblebee, but I wasn't paying very much attention. Framed in ragwort.
This is the Stourbridge junction ground frame, which allows trains to enter the branch line from the main line or the reverse.
It is situated next to the old Stourbridge junction signal box, which its self is now a Chiltern staff mess room.
The ground frame is used to alternate the two class 139 parry people movers, in and out of service on the Stourbridge junction to Stourbridge town branch line, run by Pre-metro operations on behalf of WMTrains.
From the May 2016 trip to Thailand and Cambodia:
Ayuthaya is really just a day trip from Bangkok. It’s about 1.5-2 hours by small van (and was about 60 baht/person, if I remember correctly). Ayuthaya is an interesting place in that it’s the former capital of Siam and, now, is famous for its ruins (Angkor Wat-ish, which made this day trip a pretty good preview for me, since we spent 2+ full days in Angkor a week after being here).
The ruins are quite fascinating. Ayuthaya was, in its prime, one of the largest cities in the world. It was the capital of Siam from 1350-1767 and was a major trading port, which led to a lot of international comingling. The capital finally fell in 1767 at the hands of the Burmese, who went on to destroy almost everything they could.
After 1767, the majority of temples simply began to fall into ruin. It wasn’t until 1991 when UNESCO declared it a World Heritage Site that renovation/restoration truly began. The Burmese, for their part, have contributed to rebuilding.
The old city of Ayuthaya is located on an island – manmade, if I’m not mistaken – surrounded by sprawling, modern-day, urbanized and otherwise completely unmemorable buildings in a panoramic sense. The minivan drops you off at the eastern edge of the island, where you’re generally assailed upon by a horde of tuktuk drivers. For 800 baht, we had one hired for the day, who took us to six sites.
On the particular day that we visited here (Tuesday, May 10, 2016), it was fairly hot. The temperature was close to 100 degrees (38*C). We arrived at the first of six (though there are many more) temples around 11:00.
Wat Yai Chai Mongkhon (20 baht) was built by King U Thong in 1357 to house Sri Lankan monks. It’s just outside the main island on the eastern or southeastern part of town. The highlights of this temple are the somewhat large reclining Buddha and the rows of Buddhas which surround the main chedi. It’s not a large temple, though it was pretty interesting and photogenic.
The second site (through the fifth) were all located on the main island. Wat Phra Mahathat (50 baht) has the most-photographed site in Ayuthaya: a sandstone Buddha head entwined in a tree’s root system. The temple was built in 1374 during the reign of King Borom Ratchathirat I. The other points of interest at Wat Mahathat are the Khmer-style prangs (chedis) and the rows of headless Buddhas. Wat Mahathat is quite a bit bigger than Wat Yai Chai Mongkhon, and it’s easy to spend an hour here.
From Wat Mahathat, the third stop was quite near: Wat Phra Si Sanphet (50 baht). Per Lonely Planet, Wat Si Sanphet was built during the late 15th century and once contained a 16-meter high standing Buddha covered with 250 kg of gold that the Burmese melted down and ran off with. What is still remaining are three rather impressive and easily-recognizable chedi (chedi just means stupa, or pagoda) that are the highlight of a visit here. Like Wat Mahthat, the grounds here are a bit large, though there are fewer ruins here than at Mahathat. This temple was used by quite a few kings.
Next door to Wat Si Sanphet was the fourth stop: Wihaan Phra Mongkhon Bophit. This is a sanctuary hall which houses one of the largest (17-meter high) bronze Buddha statues in the country. The Buddha has undergone quite a few restorations after lightning strikes and fire. In 1955, the Burmese Prime Minister donated 200,000 baht (a little over $6,000) to restore the building. Between Wat Si Sanphet and here, one can easily spend another hour, if not longer.
Wat Lokaya Sutha was the fifth stop, and is on the western side of the main island. Of the six stops, it was the least impressive…primarily because there’s not much to see except for a reclining Buddha, which is rather large. The actual temple itself, though, is long gone. Spending more than 5-10 minutes here is probably a few minutes longer than necessary.
Our last stop of the afternoon was Wat Chai Wattanaram (50 baht/person). This is one of the more recent temples/ruins (built in 1673 by King Prasat Thong). LP says that, “Just 40 years ago, this temple and one-time garrison were immersed in thick jungle.” None of that is evident now. It’s actually a dry, dusty temple with a very distinct 35-meter high central prang surrounded by 4 medium-sized prangs (at the NE, SE, SW, and NW corners) and four smaller prangs at the cardinal directions. This temple is quite picturesque, though given the heat, we were about ready to call it a day after having spent about 30-45 minutes here.
Finally having finished, we had our tuktuk driver take us back to the bus station (a garage, really), where we immediately caught a van back to Bangkok and spent our last evening (for now) wandering around Chinatown (quickly) before going back to Th Khao San for a more relaxing dinner.
