Glad to see somebody wanted to save that frame and awesome to see you repair it! I remember when the ARC's came out and they were the coolest of the cool!
Good film making, i enjoy the mix of narrated insights, subtitles,interludes and the visual parts. Pretty stocked to have stumbled here and to see your work. Thank you lads!
Great work that was fun to watch 👍can you do a double pass with the tig and then file it back like you do on fillet braising with aluminium? To get that smooth look
Thanks! The short answer is yes! you can file it back. With thin tubes and big wide welds you also get a lot of shrinkage in the joint so you only file to a certain point and finish the job with plastic filler to avoid thinning the tubes any further.
What happens if you just used a big old adjustable reamer and ream the old head tube out until it falls off? Edit: I hadn't yet seen your double holesaw for the seatube.
Beautiful welds!!how did you get so wide welds, especially around the headstock? Which filler rod (diameter and code number, meaning Si or Mg alloy) did you use? thanks again
Hi, I turn down the Hertz cycle frequency to around 60 but keep the wave balance tuned for longer penetration (positive) cycle and allow 30 seconds of preheat if the frame is cold. For the 7005 frames I use 5356. Here is a link to the formula. www.alcotec.com/us/en/support/upload/a5356tds.pdf

Thank for for the kind words. We have a lot of fun showing off our work.
Such a treat to see that kind of skill and talent at work; he makes it look so easy!
Thanks, that is kind of you.

Hi, I have tried to mill it off before. It's very difficult to hold the frame by the front tubes without causing dents.
@@therealfrankthewelder Fair point. 🙂

@@therealfrankthewelder Thank you a lot , really
Nice video really! What stuff did you apply over the flap disc grinder?
Bee's wax.
@@therealfrankthewelder Thank you!
good job😉🇺🇦
Hi Frank, In the shots of the finished frame, what are the six holes on either side of the top tube for?
Hi, the six holes on the right side are rivet holes for mounting cable housing stops.
So do you acid or beadblast all frames first? In house?
We only do the fabrication, nothing to do with finishing though we do have a huge bead blast machine.
@@therealfrankthewelder so it came to you like that? I'm just curious how they removed the original paint
@@janeblogs324 Sorry, I didn't read your question correctly. We use acid to remove paint. 😁

That is all…. Go ride your bike
