Frame building course.

[Milkfloat]

I am doing some early investigations into a frame building course. I don't want to get into frame building per se, but I would like to own a bike that I built from the ground up myself so rather than buying some tools anfpd teaching myself I would rather use someone else and have them hand hold me all the way through the process.

I have read around a bit and have heard good things about Dave Yates and Downland Cycles, but wanted to hear from people who have been on a course and built their own frame. I would like to build a solid winter bike.

Over to you......

Last time I looked into it Enigma offered courses as well. I've no experience, but it's something on my to-do list.

I think Dave Yates has recently retired (he was flogging off a workshop load of tools on YACF).
