Seat adjusters

For back.

For front.

Then today's last shot.

It's very recumbent, isn't it ?
Next task is the handle.

Attaching seat

I welded some small parts to attach the seat to main tube.



Welding isn't easy.



The other small parts were welded to seat, too.

Some more small parts are needed to fix the seat.

Making seat

I decided to re-use a sheet of seat of my second python.

Should I weld more ? Isn't tacking enough for it ?

I cut the seat to set more front side.

Then I made some small parts to attach the seat.

It took a few hours.

Connecting parts

At first, I did some small jobs.

This is pillar for steering.

Then there was covered.

Then I welded dropouts to rear fork.

My welding becomes better,I think.

Rear wheel was attached.

Then front and rear parts were connected.

I put seat on it.

It's too wide.

The width was shorten by cutting and welding.

Is it look better ?

Repairing seat

The tension may be too high.

I changed it to aluminum one.

After riding, I checked it. The problem haven't been solved.

Making jig for welding front part

I have never used jig to make python. But this time,I need it.

That's simple construction. Rectangular pipe has screw and angle of 90 degrees.






Then set front parts on it.





After taking, I took off the jig and welding. I should not do it.



My welding becomes better.

I set the front part to the jig. Then I noticed it lost balance.

The center of folk and BB isn't much and a edge of the BB was high than the other one.
I thought about solution. At last, I cut the narrower pipes then with cramping BB and front fork, I welded them again.


Next task was welding pipe for front deraileur on the BB.

Around here, my welding didn't work well.

I welded two pipes between the front fork and the pipe for front deraileur.

This is front part. To check the position of handle, I need welding rear dropouts and making seat.

Preparing for next job

I cut some pipes and a one of them was cut like fish mouth.

And two of them were bent a little.

I ride my new pink python. It's comfortable than normal bike.
I noticed one problem about shift lever. They are too near seat.
