Right, after all that talking, here are some photos.
1. Basic chassis
2. Showing the engine just ploncked on the chassis rails with
andgle-iron supports.
3. Shows the two for/aft facing angle-iron runners and the box
section bolted to the engine. This arranglement make for easy
engine swaoping and chain tension adjustment..
4 First indication of what I am actually building. Not what you
thought eh?
5. Another indication of the shape.

Her are some very poor piccies that give an insight into the
appearance of the 'Wee Beasie'I have engine built now and the
pedal arrangement (using the CMC cut pedal set from Gemini) so
need to buy some steel and get cutting and hot metal gluing.
She is going to have a big image of Dangermouse on the scuttle
and a few words from the Rabbi Burns, that weel know Jeweish
mouse house wrecker.
"But Mousie, thou art no thy lane,
In proving foresight may be vain:
The best-laid schemes o’ Mice an’ Men
Gang aft agley,
An’ lea’e us nought but grief an’ pain,
For promis’d joy!
That sort of sums up cycleKart building form!
