Another fixture today... the new yoke requires a fixture to hold it securely for mitering and affixing to the chain stays, so I machined up a quick adapter for my Anvil fixture.
I laid out the coordinates on a scrap piece of aluminum and then went to work as the human CNC...not as efficient as the computer, but it cleaned up with a quick pass of the drum sander and fit nicely.
The new piece holds the yoke symmetrically and allows for adjustment fore/aft/lateral to achieve perfect alignment. Cool.
I received some good news today. My doctor has released me to do light work in the shop although I still have a few more weeks before I'll be returning to heavy lifting and the fire department. Looking forward to feeling productive again
PS... don't get old it really sucks.
Glad to see you working in the shop! The frame looks great, thanks for the tips on welding.
