This is looking really good! I wish I'd known about the affordable torch you're using when I was building mine. I would definitely have bought one and probably sped up my completion b/c I kept having to wait for our metal shop to be open at a time I could go. It was especially nice to hear your reaction to learning how to braze weld because as a novice I went through the same series of emotions, kind of scared at first and completely stoked after a couple successful joints. It's very empowering to learn something like this, isn't it? Looking forward to the next episode.
