Great show this weekend. I snuck out of work for a few hours on Friday to attend the seminars and thought I'd share some photos.

While not an aspiring builder I found the seminars to be very interesting.
They started off with Brian speaking to a room of seated guests but soon turned into a very fun informal huddle around him as he lectured and answered questions while filing away on some nice looking lugs.
Following was a great hands on lecture by Dave Bohm of Bohemian Bicycles on using jeweler's tools to make head badges or other artwork for your bike. He encouraged people to take up the jewel saw and do some of the cutting while he spoke. I was so enthralled that I forgot to take photos! Sorry.
Last but not least was Rob Roberson's demonstration on how to to install braze-ons on the cheap by scavaging parts from old bikes and making any tool you need to do the job. His demonstration on how to adjust the fork blades to adjust rake or even out the length was great.
I also took some photos of the bikes from my short time on Sunday, but
better ones of the same bikes have already been posted so I'll spare you.
>From my perspective, the show was a great success. Count me in for next
year.
