Images from Doug Fattic's Workshop

Here is a collection of random shots from the workshop.

Here's the shop from the outside. The bike out front is a prototype of a model made in Ukraine by 7th Day Adventist Monks. Doug goes to Ukraine almost every year to teach frame building. The workshop itself was built to be the home of the former land owner's wife, divorce not being an option for them. Doug grew up in a nice little cottage on the other side of the lawn. 

My classmate, working away. 

Doug learned how to framebuild at Ellis-Briggs in England.


Fork collection. 

Doo-dads

Shells.

Propane for silver brazing, O2 concentrators for the same. Bottled gas and oxygen are on the left.

Doug tried making tandems for a bit, but didn't like it. 

Doug made this tube block new for us. He was quite proud. 

This is all spare tubes and stuff for student brazing practice. There's probably a grand in scrap metal and silver here. 

Curtis Odom makes cool hubs. Doug had these just lying around.

  1. It's no longer necessary to spend days or weeks painting a house or other building when you can use a small, portable paint sprayer that's nevertheless powerful enough to do the job. Because of their ease of use and high power, airless paint booth is among the most popular and widely accessible painting tools.
