I was going through some old pictures the other day and came across these from the Yamaguchi frame school. This was the final day of frame building. It was over 3 years ago and I never would have thought that I would still be building frames, however, building frames was the original idea behind going so I guess things are rolling along as planned. Judd and Will were the other two students with me. Check out those 50 caliber shell casings brazed into Will's seat stays. While Koichi & Will were hollowing out the shells for brazing Judd was out back trying to ignite the caps with a hammer. Way louder than what anyone was expecting, just ask Rosco, he was under the table for a couple hours after that. Dangerously custom you might say. Working with Koichi was a very memorable experience and I would do it again in a heartbeat, he's about as cool as they get. If you ever get the chance to go it will definitely be worth your while. Enjoy!
