Have been encouraged to share this new build. Not an original idea - plans and advice are freely available at Recycled Recumbents https://sites.google.com/site/recycledrecumbents/ Every detail is covered there - credit to A D Carson who shared everything there.
I've made a start on the frame and that's almost complete. Just the tricky bits now, like adding mounts for disc brakes and making the mounts and brackets for under seat steering etc. The welds in the pictures have not been ground down yet. Need a good outside day for that as the sparks tend to fly a bit.
1) Example of what I'm building.
2) The bits to start the build.
3) First part - the front triangle.
4) Fitted rear triangle and bottom rails.
5) Fabrication of the brake mounts.
