		<title>Day 5 &#8211; downtube, bottom bracket, fork crown and more filing</title>
		<description><![CDATA[I can&#8217;t believe how fast the first week has gone. We&#8217;re flying through the course and starting to envision what our frames will look like. When we got into the shop on Friday Doug gave us the lesson on determining steerer length for a fork. Simple to calculate and carefully noted on my notepad! I [...]]]></description>

		<title>Day 4 &#8211; the fork assembly</title>
		<description><![CDATA[Day 4 was a review of bottom bracket brazing and the importance of proper technique with the torch. We learned several secrets of seat tubes that you&#8217;ll have to take the class to learn.

		<title>Day 3 &#8211; framebuilding</title>
		<description><![CDATA[Today we got to play with fire! Brazing with silver is the method we&#8217;re using to join the tube to the lugs. After a lesson on oxy-acetylene we did some practice brazing on some old tubes. No need to risk drama on the real stuff just yet.  I have experience welding with a MIG [...]]]></description>

		<title>Day 2 &#8211; framebuilding</title>
		<description><![CDATA[Day 2 involved getting into Doug&#8217;s fixture. The fixture allows you to apply your specific dimensions so you&#8217;ll get a frame that fits you.

		<title>Day 1 &#8211; bicycle framebuilding with Doug Fattic</title>
		<description><![CDATA[Today was our first day in Doug Fattic&#8217;s framebuilding class. A little back story first. I wanted to take this class so I could learn a new skill and make custom frames. I took a trip to Austin, TX for the North American Handmade Bike Show and was blown away. I have to do this! [...]]]></description>

		<title>Eggplant chicken rice extravaganza</title>
