Info

I'm Joe Roggenbuck, aka Cobra Framebuilding. I make tools for bicycle framebuilders. On this channel, I provide tips and discussions about bicycle framebuilding, TIG welding, and related subjects every week.

I've posted videos on framebuilding classes, workbench setups and TIG welding setups for framebuilding, mitering how-to videos, suggestions for your first frame build, powder coating vs paint, discussions about bike design and software (BikeCAD), miscellaneous shop organization tips, and demonstrations of the tools I make for bicycle framebuilding.

I have so much more to cover in future videos. I'm just getting started, so be sure to subscribe!

You can check out my bicycle framebuilding tools for offer at cobraframebuilding.com.
