  1. Something's worth what it's worth when the money changes hands.
  2. So what kit are you actually building here? The fender assembly looks like the Tognitti T kit.
  3. Trust me, the fused chain is what you want. It looks exactly like the drive chain you are trying to replicate.
  4. A bit if real trivia about fusee chain. This stuff is so extremely small that adult hands could not assemble it so children from orphanages were used due to their tiny hands and manual dexterity. Remember this was done about 100 years ago when pocket watches were in fashion and there were no child labor laws.
  5. A most ambitious project. Be sure to post your progress.
  6. was looking for some chain for a custom bicycle project last year and someone responded with the following source. That was to buy what is known as FUSEE(foo-say) chain that was believe it or not used in hand wound pocket watch manufacturing. The stuff is not cheap and everything I found available was from England. There were no American sources so if you order you'll have to be patient. on delivery. Some might be available on Ebay or you can google it. Goodluck.
  7. Top shelf concept and execution. Thanks for sharing.
  8. Looking very good!
  9. Neat and nostalgic story. Thanks for sharing.
