We just spent almost a month getting a repop FL frame "right", I don't know who welded it but they either didn't use a very good jig or they used it poorly. Hope it all goes well for you , but if it's a repop I might suggest taking some careful measurements to make sure everything is welded where it should be.
Good luck and throw some progress pics up in "other bikes, Id love to see how it turns out.

Not usually, but she'd just laugh at it. You really think I could have talked her into that picture if she didn't enjoy being appreciated?
