Build a Bamboo Bicycle (And Light it up!)

Step 3: Building a Stand

I did not want to build a full jig, but I still built a stand for the frame.  This helped enormously with wrapping the carbon fiber and aligning the dropouts.  

I screwed two pieces of aluminum angle into a 6" wide plywood board to hold the bottom bracket shell in place.  To hold the rear dropouts, I used a threaded rod bolted to the wooden base.
