Lovely Llewellyn

 

 

An apology


I suggested to Darrell McCulloch, the heart, soul, internal organs and brains of 
Llewellyn that he should include cheeky 'props' which can be seen in the bouyant finish of his chrome lugs.

Talk about a dressing down....

'CHROME!!! THEY'RE NOT CHEAP CHROME!'

Once I'd calmed him down, he explain the toil in producing the most beautifully polished stainless lugs available to man and woman.



Here's the difference between cheap chrome (even Colnago's patina after a decade) and POLISHED Stainless steel.


I apologise for the confusion, but I'm sure I'm not the first to have marvelled at his frames admiring the contrasting finish of paint and mirrored surfaces.

Recipe for beauty

Darrel McCulluch's entree


File the lug

4 stages of sanding with assorted grits of paper

2 stage buffing with various compounds and mops

Add MANY hours of labour by hand


Resulting in ONE polished fork tip


Ready to enjoy.
