The biggest issue with this frame was a dent on the lower tube, I didn’t have any decent blocks of wood to make a frame roller, so the wife and I spent yesterday making them as a 3d print.

While it didn’t completely remove the dent, it did help make it smaller.

Before

After: the paint wearing was from sanding down ready for painting not the blocks

    100% right, not a super ideal material at all held up in the vice surprisingly well I went for larger area in an attempt to make it withstand pressure a bit better, and didn’t notice any damage to the print which would have happened if it flexed too much it’s also PLA which is pretty stiff.
