Right after I got home tonight I started working on the frame. I ended up getting just about all of it stripped. There is a bit of paint left in the few places I couldn't get my wire wheel. So I'll either sand those down by hand before painting, or get a couple Dremel wire wheels that I can get in there. A few new pics of the stripped bike are in the gallery. http://www.waterman981.com/gallery2/main.php?g2_itemId=54285

I am thinking of cutting off two things. There is a bracket for cantilever brakes. I'll never be putting them on. And places to bolt a rack to, which I also plan on never doing. I just don't know how cleanly I can cut them off, or if I'll leave holes in those tubes. Anyone know how to weld/fill cro-moly steel?
