The original frame had rigid foot pegs that did not fold.. The previous owner of this Greeves had cut these off and welded Bates folding footrests to the frame. The round rubber pegs aren't the best on a bike to be used for trials and each side was at a different height which also wouldn't help. So the first job was to cut them off and weld up the holes left in the frame. My son is doing the welding.
Having a swift walk about the show. It's very similar to last year, so I'll probably take less pictures. There's some welding going on here.

I bridged the gap between the main weld bead and an initial tack with my TIG welder. I haven't welded mild steel in a while, and it didn't come out as cleanly as I would have liked.
Thankfully paint does a decent job of covering up little flaws like this!
Welds suck to grind, so I left this one and went through a fair amount of trouble to make it look nice. Frame-builder humor.

TIG welded to make fixed hub. Learning to TIG weld. My aerosol can of degreaser fell off the bench partway through and sprung a leak so I stopped welding. Oil would weep out from the heat of welding and I would stop and clean. I would have gone the full diameter but without degreaser it would have been worthless. I will go over it again later when I get to the store.
