168.0. "Frame Building" by SUPER::CONNELL () Thu Nov 06 1986 13:16

    
    Thought we should have a note about frame building (hope there isn't
    one already).
    
    I built one (track frame) a few years ago.  Great experience.  Spent
    about 6 months on it, part-time (very part-time).  It's really not
    as hard and mysterious as it is made out to be.  You just take your
    time.
    
    You can build a one-frame jig out of wood, so you don't need anything
    expensive to build one.
