Some lug carving


This picture was taken by my friend Mark Stonich. The color is a stock Imron color. The seat lug is a Pacenti artisan lug that I carved up. I like how it turned out. The seat stay caps are a semi-wrap style that I typically do.










This picture shows a Richard Sachs top lug in my hand and the same lug on the frame with the head tube extension removed. Kind of trick.

Curt,

I was wondering.....Does the semi wrap stay use a cap or a plug??

I cap the seat stay with a piece of scrap tubing. It creates a concave stay end. Additional material is left beyond the seat stay. That material is shaped to semi-wrap the seat lug. I'll post pictures of that soon.
