Welder of steel tubing

Post by Judas Maccabeus »

Folks:

Is there anyone out there (Southern PA, Northern VA) that has experience in welding steel tubing, and would like a rather unique job. My intent is to build a tricycle.

A tricycle?

I'm definitely not your man, but this sounds like a good story ...

Is it biblical? Is it Christlike? Is it loving? Is it true? How can I find out?

I'd love to do it (I could practically TIG weld tin foil in my day) but... It sounds like a fun project.

OUTSTANDING!
Recumbent?
2 on the front or on the rear?

Please consider posting photos when you're finished. We'd love to see it. :D

I still need to finish the drawings, and it will use "modern" tires/wheels, and a hub shifter. It is called a Rudge Rotary, my balance is lacking, and I think this is the ticket. Will do some mods on the steering handle as well, but here it is.

I will keep you-all posted.

That looks as though I could ride it myself and I've never been able to keep a bike balanced enough to ride. That's a great idea, JM!
