  1. Okay, I scrounge old bicycles that get thrown out and use the frames for
    various projects (bicycle trailers, art, etc). This is easy to do with
    ye olde diamond frame, but I am at a loss for useful projects that
    utilise these "modern", egg/oval profile one tube design on the basic
    mtb they sell.

    Looking for ideas, url's, etc.

    Scrounging this christmas was very successful and I have five frames to
    utilise.

  2. concrete reinforcment?

    Somewhere recently, I've also seen something that basically used the
    [censored] end rotated and connected to rectangular RHS and front end on the
    other end of the RHS as a quasi recumbent.

    Now all I need to do is source some oxy bottles (sans rental).

    Thanks all for the ideas.
