Anvil frame jig and fork jig in the shop....

 215 lbs of jigs and fixtures arrived via UPS from Anvil Bikeworks. It has taken me a while to get around to unpacking them - electrical contracting and life.... but by any reasonable definition -  life is great!

Here is a picture of the frame building jig all packed away in its crate.

And here is a picture of it all put together.

Here is a picture of the fork building jig - sorry that is a really bad picture - I'll try and get a better picture some time and post it here.

I am really impressed with the quality and design of the jigs so far. Exactly what I would expect based on reviews and my research. I am really looking forward to getting a chance to use them.

I also received my first order of braze on's and dropouts from Paragon Machine works. Good stuff - I particularly like the rear dropouts with the integrated bottle opener....
