And last of all, the chainstay brace.

All mitered up, and snug against the squared off points of the bottom bracket lug.



And from another angle...



This chainstay brace was brought to you by Coopers Stout. You can see the frame - toasty flux and all - cooling in the vice.



From now on, the work is largely cosmetic - cleaning up around the bottom bracket, tapping the threads in the BB and generally cleaning up around the edges - aka shorelines - of the lugs. But basically, you could whack some wheels and a groupset on this thing and ride it now.
