Seriously nice job on that frame. I'm in the process of building my first scratch built frame and it doesn't anywhere near this good. Practice makes perfect, I guess, and you've obviously had some practice.

excuse my ignorance, but what is the function of the brass rod?

Believe it or not this is my first fully scratch built frame too, however I've done a lot of other things theta probably helped me plan this one a bit.

The brass rod is a panhard rod, helps locate the axel from side to side movement. I used brass in this case due to its strength over a piece of styrene in the same size.
