You can't have a thread about fillet without Dave Kirk's NAHBS winning gothic fillet frame...

Exclamation Fillet brazed and bi-laminate lugged frame gallery...please post images.

I have never had either one, but if I were to buy another steel frame I would be most intetested in one built using either of these techniques/aesthetics.

I periodically glustaze (gaze + lust) over Steve Rex's Fillet and Dave Wages' Bi-Lam work, and I know that there are some other masters in both areas.

If you have images of favorite frames built with these techniques, please post away!
Overalls + close-ups would be fantastic.

Well used, but still my favorite (if only I still fit it).

Here is some closeups of my new Coconino. All fillet brazed including the fork. I also have two 90's vintage Nobilette GT's that are fillet.

I have always loved that frame, that technique, those colors.
If I ever save enough that would be my #1 choice.
Is yours a 58TT by chance?

William, does that thread also have bi-laminate work? Even if not, but you want to merge the two threads, perhaps just add "bi-laminate" somewhere in the title?

Also gorgeous. I very much respect Garro.
