In the last installment I started making the stainless elbow
for the hydraulic front brakeline, which will also stop the
handlebar from rotating in the risers (which would probably
cut off the brakeline) I started with a chunk of stainless steel
in my Lathe, then before milling I used an angle grinder to
remove most of the unneeded material. This is because my vertical
milling machine is several sizes smaller than Aad's Bridgeport,
and would take forever... Now I only needed to remove the last
millimeter so that everything would be nice and straight.
